Dartmouth students come from all 50 states and nearly 60 different countries. Men and women are equally represented on campus and over a third of our students identify themselves as students of color (30%) or non-U.S. citizens (7%). Prior to enrolling at the College, approximately two-thirds of Dartmouth students attended public secondary schools and one-third attended private or parochial schools.
Roughly half of Dartmouth's students receive some form of financial assistance to cover the cost of their education. Last year, the College awarded over $55 million in need-based scholarships.
