About Scholarships

Support for scholarships remains critical at MIT. Did you know that in 2025, nearly 88 percent of undergraduates graduated debt free from MIT? 

Additionally, undergraduates with family income below $200,000 can expect to attend MIT tuition-free, thanks to newly expanded financial aid. Eighty percent of American households meet this income threshold. MIT is one of only a few higher education institutions in the US that is both need blind and meets the full financial needs of its undergraduate students.

Your gift to scholarship support ensures that an MIT education is accessible to bright, talented students, regardless of income.  

Please make a gift to support scholarships during the MIT 24-Hour Challenge on March 12!
