“it told me what to ask and what the renewal GPA looked like, which I was not going to find on my own”Melissa
Goucher rewards students drawn to its distinctive liberal arts model and mission-driven community.
Selection beyond grades and scores
These awards are not recorded as automatic on grades and scores. Read each award's selection rules, application steps and dates. Meeting a minimum is not an award offer.
Look for the school's stated criteria and whether an additional application is needed.
Confirm the current admission and scholarship deadlines directly with the school.
Check renewal, credit requirements and how other aid affects the award.

Does it apply to us? Confirm the entering year, residency and every eligibility condition.
Can we keep it? Check renewal GPA, credits and how long the award lasts.
Can we combine it? Ask how outside scholarships and other school awards change the offer.

From the Goucher College Common Data Set 2025-2026 (school-estimated figures):
At Goucher College, roughly 1 in 3 first-year admits receive institutional merit aid. The average award is $42,958 — about 75% of total cost.
As filed in Goucher College's CDS Section H2A: of 265 first-time, full-time degree-seeking freshmen, 82 had no financial need and received institutional merit (non-need) scholarship or grant aid, averaging $42,958. Across all full-time degree-seeking undergraduates: 285 of 979, averaging $38,065. Athletic awards are excluded per the CDS definition.
The 2025-2026 column is marked "estimated" in the school's own CDS filing — school-projected figures, not final audited counts.
These awards can be harder to find. Each one has its own rules.
