What is need-blind admission?
Need-blind admission means that an applicant’s ability to pay for his or her education will not be a factor in the admission decision. In other words, a candidate’s financial need will not be taken into consideration when deciding to admit, wait list, or deny an applicant. This policy applies to all U.S. Citizens and Permanent Residents regardless of the program to which the applicant has applied. For more information, please read Brown’s “Need-Blind Admission.
