Bard College Berlin's scholarships and financial aid are awarded on an annual basis and applicants have to reapply each year. Students can expect that the same level of aid is offered for a consecutive four-year period. This continuation of financial aid is contingent on the student's timely submission of required documents each year, the demonstration of a similar level of financial need, and the student maintaining a good academic standing. Please note that incomplete renewal applications will not be processed until all required documents are received. The application deadline for renewal of financial aid is April 1st of each year.
