The Colgate Commitment

The Colgate Commitment marks a milestone in the University’s progress to make a Colgate education affordable to as many talented, high-achieving ÉÁµç×ÊÔ´Íøs as possible, regardless of their socioeconomic background.

For eligible ÉÁµç×ÊÔ´Íøs, this comprehensive financial aid initiative will: eliminate tuition, significantly reduce ÉÁµç×ÊÔ´Íø debt, and adjust tuition based on the family's income levels.
