Admission
We know that the college application and admission process may seem rather daunting, but we promise it's not a mystery. When we review applications there are three main areas that we look at - your high school performance, extracurricular contributions and standardized test results. We're not looking for the 'perfect' student, but students who are a good fit for Carnegie Mellon.
Financial Aid
There's no denying it, a private college education like Carnegie Mellon's is expensive. We hope that you and your family will look at private education as an investment in your future, and that you'll choose a school based on academic quality, not on cost alone.
We hope you find this section useful in explaining our financial aid philosophy, how we determine your financial aid package and the application process. If you have any questions, we're here to help, so please call our office during business hours at 412-268-2082.
