Applying for Financial Aid
We welcome your financial aid application. Please do not hesitate to contact Babson Student Financial Services at (781) 239-4219 or via email at sfs@babson.edu with any questions you may have throughout the process.

STEP 1 - Register and complete CSS PROFILE at College Board Online.

PROFILE is the financial aid application produced by the College Scholarship Service (CSS) of the College Board. Complete the PROFILE form carefully. If you need to estimate your income, that's okay.

Be sure to submit the application by Babson's deadline listed below. List Babson College, #3075 on the CSS code list. 

For students whose parents are self-employed or own a business or farm: Your parents must submit a Business/Farm Supplement and corporate or partnership tax returns, if applicable, directly to Student Financial Services at Babson.

For students whose parents are separated or divorced: When you file the PROFILE, you will receive an e-mail notification to complete the Noncustodial PROFILE.  You will be provided with a secure log-on and password, which should be forwarded to your noncustodial parent who can complete the form online.

STEP 2 – Apply for federal financial using the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).
