The starting point
Saint Anselm offers a holistic $20,000-$34,000 merit range (per-award GPA criteria live behind the Anselmian Aid Portal, no public grid), capped so scholarship+grant can't exceed tuition, plus a free-tuition Anselmian Community Commitment for qualifying NH residents.
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.
