A Shared ApproachAt Emmanuel, we know that a college education is a worthwhile investment that can

reap great rewards. We also understand that financing a quality private education can

be a challenge. That is why we believe that paying for an education is a partnership

between students, their families and the College.

Students invest in their own education by applying for scholarships and grants and

by borrowing with low-cost student loans.

Parents contribute to their children’s education from savings, current income, tax

credits and through low-cost parent loans.

Emmanuel College supports our students by offering merit-based scholarships and

need-based grant aid, and by participating in all federal and state funding options,

including the Federal TEACH Grant and Yellow Ribbon Program.

A college education provides graduates with dramatic advantages and opportunities.

Over the span of one’s working life, those with a bachelor’s degree earn nearly double

that of high school graduates, they gain access to a greater job market, and they open

doors to new fields through comprehensive and interdisciplinary learning.

“Emmanuel’s proximity to the Longwood

Medical and Academic Area (LMA) encouraged

me to take the initiative and contact Beth

Israel in hopes of gaining experience. Now, I

serve as a research student and volunteer in

their emergency department. I’m learning so

much from both these experiences.”

College grant aid. Some students will also be eligible to receive federal, state and

other grant or scholarship funding. These funds may be awarded in addition to

merit or other scholarship funds you receive from Emmanuel College. Students who

complete a FAFSA may also receive low-interest student loans, including the Federal

Stafford Loan and Federal Work Study.

Students interested in applying for need-based financial aid must complete the

2011-2012 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). This application

can be completed online at www.fafsa.gov on or after January 1, 2011. Although

we encourage you to complete the FAFSA as soon after January 1st as possible, the

tax returns. The application is available on our website at www.emmanuel.edu

Student Employment Students can gain valuable work experience and earn spending money through

on- or off-campus job opportunities. Emmanuel provides on-campus jobs, including

positions with academic departments, Athletics, Admissions, Residence Life and the

library. Our Boston location affords students the opportunity to find off-campus jobs

within a short walk from campus, as well as the chance to gain real-world experience

through internships.

Internship and job listings are conveniently posted on our Internships and Career

Development website and a job fair is held on campus at the start of each semester.

“My hope was to gain more experience in

of Marketing Communications. Yet it was the

after graduation. I would not have realized my

interest in this medium had it not been for

this opportunity.”

Areas of StudyWith more than 30 areas of study to explore, at Emmanuel College you will flex

muscles of both the mind and the heart as you develop the ability to acquire and

evaluate knowledge, and the imagination to shape new ways of perceiving, thinking

and creating. Here every class is taught by a professor, not a teaching assistant.

Creating a deep, personal student/faculty relationship that begins day one. This is

an engaged, energetic faculty with global connections in their fields. The classes

are small; the horizon is huge.
