State Programs
State Scholarships/Grants
Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont and Pennsylvania have scholarship/grant programs for students who are residents of those states. Students should check with their state scholarship office for specific eligibility information and application deadlines. Wheaton will not replace anticipated state scholarship or grant dollars with institutional funds for students who fail to complete the application process. To maximize the chances of being eligible for state assistance, we recommend that the FAFSA application be completed by the appropriate state deadline.
Gilbert Grants
The Gilbert Grant Program is made up of funds allotted to Wheaton by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Awarded to high-need residents of the state, Gilbert Grants usually range from $500 to $2,500.
