Scholarships and access-focused initiatives

$15M

Our top priority is providing access to Hartwick’s transformational experience, and we are unrelenting in this commitment. Thanks to the generosity of people like you, Hartwick has already achieved much in the expansion of access and opportunity. With national rankings of #9 for largest merit scholarships* and #26 for social mobility,^ our diverse student population is one of our greatest assets. We currently invest close to $60 million annually in comprehensive financial aid to 99% of students, and each year dozens of first-generation graduates cross our commencement stage.

Unrestricted gifts to the Hartwick Fund, is where we find resources to develop new ideas and invest in emerging curriculum and opportunities. It serves as the foundation for the Hartwick College experience and continues to be our  highest funding priority. Every donor to the Hartwick Fund can have an immediate impact with their gift.

Your generous support allows us to continue identifying talent and potential, so that our student body is composed of people with varied and valuable abilities, even if the ability to pay is not among them.

THE HARTLAND PROMISE

Our community’s needs are just as vital. The HartLand Promise allows students in nine neighboring counties to attend Hartwick at a cost comparable to a SUNY university center. It’s a continuation of Hartwick’s historic commitment to educating the region.
