• To apply for Skidmore grant assistance begin by checking "Yes" on the Skidmore Admission application to the question asking: Are you applying for financial aid? 
• When completing the Skidmore Admission application and the College Scholarship Service (CSS) PROFILE be sure to use your correct social security number. While the social security number is not required on the admission application, it is required when applying for financial aid. **Delays in matching your financial aid and admission applications will occur if you do not provide your name and social security number as it appears on your social security card.
• The CSS PROFILE is required for Skidmore Grant eligibility determination.
• The FAFSA is required for Federal aid eligibility determination.

 Application for Skidmore Grant Eligibility 

  ......is as easy as 1, 2, and done...

1. Complete the 2024-25 College Scholarship Service (CSS) Financial Aid PROFILE (Available October 1st).  The Skidmore College Code is 2815.     
   
2. If your parents do not live together, each parent must complete a separate 2024-25 CSS Profile.  It is highly recommended that the student and the “custodial” parent start the CSS Profile application before the “non-custodial” parent starts theirs. If either or both parent is remarried, that parent’s current spouse’s information would also be provided on the CSS Profile.
