USA: Need-blind Admission at Davidson College

Davidson College, North Carolina

Davidson College is a liberal arts institution founded by Presbyterians in 1837. Its 1,700 students come from almost every state in the nation and nearly 40 foreign countries. A highly selective admission process brings students who are proven scholars and leaders to a close campus community in Davidson, N.C., just 20 minutes north of Charlotte.

Davidson's longstanding policy of need-blind admission can be summed up simply: a student's character and academic potential, not the family bank balance, are the factors considered for admission. We believe this is the surest and fairest way to continue attracting the best all-around students from across the nation and the world to the enduring value of a Davidson education. Gifts to the Annual Fund support this policy. Competition for the available funds is keen.

What is Davidson?
• a college campus where century-old trees and brick buildings blend with state-of-the- art technology and top-notch facilities
• an academic institution in the heart of a classic college town with easy access to the vibrant city of Charlotte and beautiful Lake Norman
• a trusting community where a celebrated Honor Code forms the core of your relationships with professors and peers;
• a global institution that enrolls students from 47 states and 39 countries; where over 80% of students travel, work, or study abroad;
• a place where athletes in 21 NCAA Division I varsity sports pack their books along with their cleats for away games
