The
above rate for room is based on double occupancy; rates vary with type of facilities.
The College has limited single, suite, and apartment accommodations at higher
rates. Triple rooms are also available at a lower rate.
These
charges are for the 2004–2005 academic year and are subject to change in
subsequent years.
Additional costs include books, transportation, and personal expenses.
Approximately
80 percent of incoming students receive some form of financial assistance. Applicants
seeking aid must submit the FAFSA (free application for federal student aid),
available from high school guidance offices, directly to the appropriate processor
for the U.S. Department of Education listed on the back of the form. Form should
be submitted by February 1 to ensure arrival by March 1.
The College recognizes outstanding academic achievement and demonstrated talent
and considers all applications for merit aid based on these criteria. Premier
Talent Scholarships, in amounts up to $13,000, may be awarded to students who
demonstrate exceptional performing ability in the audition. The Premier Talent
Scholarships are not awarded until after all students have auditioned and applied
(approximately mid-April). The College offers President's and Dean's Scholarships
ranging from $3,000 to $13,000 per year over four years. A separate application
is not required to be considered for these scholarships. Ithaca College is a sponsor
in the National Merit Scholarship Corporation (NMSC) program, which provides scholarships
of up to $2,000 to students who list Ithaca College as their first-choice institution
to NMSC in accordance with NMSC guidelines. In addition, Ithaca College provides
these students with a $13,000 Ithaca College President's Scholarship. These awards
are renewable on an annual basis for up to eight semesters.
In awarding aid, Ithaca considers academic performance or promise along with special
talents. Consequently, once admissibility and need are established, competitive
criteria do come into play.
