Undergraduate Financial Assistance
AUB Mediterraneo has a strong financial assistance program to attract students who have excelled academically and to assist qualified students who could not otherwise afford to attend our university. We offer both need-based grants and scholarships that are awarded to students based on academic achievement. Financial need is not a factor in the admission decision. Students can receive financial assistance up to 80 percent of the cost of tuition – except for students receiving the full-tuition (100 percent) President Merit Scholarship.
Financial Aid, need-based grant,
UP TO 70% OF TUITION
1. Need-based grants are awarded depending on the financial need of the family.
2. Students awarded need-based grants will continue to receive the grant as long as they are enrolled full-time and in good academic standing.
3. Students who want to be considered for a need-based grant must submit a
financial aid application (in addition to the admission application).
4. Financial need is not a factor in the admission decision.
