How the Visit Grant works

Attend an official Calvin Admissions-sponsored visit on campus during your junior or senior year in high school. Don’t wait—the offer expires May 1 of your senior year.
Students who transfer in spring ’25 or fall ’24 may qualify if they visit within 1 year of their starting date at Calvin. Learn more in the FAQs below.
International students and Americans living abroad may either attend one on-campus option, or attend two virtual events: an International Student Webinar and a one-on-one chat with an International Admissions Counselor.
The Visit Grant is renewable each year you’re an undergraduate student at Calvin, for up to five years. If you attend Calvin for four years, you will receive the $2,000 grant four times.
The Visit Grant stacks onto other financial aid you receive from Calvin.
You must be a degree-seeking, on-campus, undergraduate student to receive the grant. $2,000 per year assumes you are a full-time (12+ credits) student for both semesters. If you are less than full time you will receive a pro-rated amount.
