Student Financial Assistance
Salem State students face a number of external demands
beyond their academic requirements, including a
heavy employment schedule, caring for loved ones and
contributing to household income. While nearly 95
percent of our full-time undergraduates request financial
aid, only 81 percent receive it. Closing that gap
through philanthropy will help ensure that every Salem
State student can take full advantage of the high-quality
education that we provide and that they deserve.
