Randolph College's aid structure is need-based, with financial aid available through federal (Pell Grants, Direct Loans), state, and institutional programs. The college works with families to bridge the gap between sticker price and what they actually pay through a combination of grants, scholarships, and loans. Families apply for need-based aid using the FAFSA, and the college's financial aid office can provide personalized aid estimates based on individual circumstances. Median federal student loan debt at graduation is $26,950, and families using Parent PLUS borrow a median of $32,499; private or institutional loans may add further borrowing that falls outside these federal-only figures — see the Parent PLUS risk framework for how household context shapes PLUS decisions.
