Our offer of admission is our greatest recognition of an applicant’s remarkable academic and personal power, and our belief that they will contribute greatly to our community.

As a small institution, Davidson is fortunate to attract a talented and vibrant applicant pool each year from which we enroll an incoming class of approximately 530 students. Through the generosity of our alumni and friends, we are pleased to be able to offer a limited number of scholarship awards to approximately 4% of an incoming class. The scholarship selection process is completed in March and all winners and alternates are notified prior to the release of Regular Decision admission decisions.

All Davidson scholarships are renewable for your remaining three years at Davidson, provided established grade point average and progress toward degree requirements are met, and you participate fully and vigorously in the life of the college.
