Donnelly College Financial Aid

  

Donnelly Student Affordability

Donnelly is the lowest-priced college in Kansas and Missouri offering both associate and bachelor’s degrees. In addition, we offer financial aid packages to keep college as affordable as possible for all students. Many Donnelly students have their tuition and fees fully covered without any student loans.

We use a mix of funding from various sources for which you are eligible to build your financial aid package. This includes federal need–based aid (Pell Grant determined by FAFSA), state grants, external scholarships and Donnelly institutional aid.
