Baker Is Affordable

One of the ways a Baker education is made affordable is through scholarships funded by alumni. These scholarships are given to incoming freshmen and transfer students who show promise in a particular academic area and range from $750 to $3,000 annually.

Our graduates understand the value of their Baker education, so many of them or their families fund scholarships in an academic area important to them to help make the dream of a Baker education a reality for deserving students.

Applying for these scholarships is easy.

Funds are limited, so apply early. The priority deadline is December 1.
