Financial Aid
Colgate supports access to quality education for students from all socioeconomic backgrounds, and is committed to lessening the burden of debt to better prepare students for opportunities after graduating.
Deferred Enrollment Requests
While the majority of students who have accepted their offer of admission intend to enter college in the fall immediately following their admission, some students request to defer their enrollment for one year to take advantage of planned enrichment activity.
Colgate supports these endeavors, but requires students to request, be approved for, and complete the deferred enrollment process to hold their space in the future entering class.
