Financial Aid

Meeting the costs of an education represents a significant investment for most families.  Soka University of America is committed to providing comprehensive merit and need-based financial aid programs that make it possible for admitted students who meet specific requirements and deadlines to attend Soka University. 

In 2009 over 90% of Soka's students, both domestic and international, received financial aid totaling over eight million dollars.  This included nearly five million dollars in need-based grants and three million dollars in merit-based scholarships.  Soka is committed to investing its resources to insure the success of our students.

In an effort to promote greater diversity and access to higher education for both domestic and international students, Soka University has also implemented the Soka Opportunity Scholarships.  All admitted students to the BA in Liberal Arts program whose annual earned family income is $60,000 or less, and who have neither graduated from college nor completed more than 3/4 of the required coursework towards their first undergraduate degree (e.g., BA/BS) at the time of application to SUA, will receive free tuition (room and board fees will still apply).
