At Fisher College we are committed to making education affordable to every student.  In fact, when it comes to affordability, a Fisher education is more affordable than you think and just as affordable as any state university after financial aid.  Not only will you benefit from small class sizes and strong academic support that only a private college can offer, you will also be able to live and study in America's greatest college city.

We encourage all students to apply for aid, regardless of his or her economic circumstance. If you have not already done so, please complete the following steps as soon as possible:

1.              Apply for an FSA ID to e-sign the FAFSA
2.              Submit the FAFSA at studentaid.gov
3.              Make sure to include Fisher College on your FAFSA—our school code is 002150

Is this your first time completing the FAFSA?  To help you through the financial aid process our team created The First Timer's Guide to the FAFSA. Download your detailed guide today! 

If you have submitted your FAFSA and have not received a financial aid offer, call the Financial Aid Office at 617-236-8821 to find out what items are missing from your file.  Do not assume that everything is done unless you have an financial aid offer in hand.

Students enrolling in the Spring 2021 have a priority deposit deadline of December 1, 2020.  The priority deposit for students entering in the Fall 2021 is May 1, 2021. 

Due to limited space on our beautiful campus in the heart of Boston's sought-after Back Bay neighborhood, Fisher College is only able to guarantee open spots to students who make a deposit by the above priority deadlines.  All housing is filled on a first come, first serve basis. 

Spring 2021 deposits are refundable until December 1, 2020 and Fall 2021 deposits are refundable until May 1, 2021.  If Fisher is one of your Top 3 school options, we recommend submitting the deposit as soon as possible to reserve your space at Fisher. 

Approximately 300 students make their homes in one of the College's eight residence halls.  Located just around the corner from the Public Gardens and Boston Common, students reside in elegant, 1900's "brownstone" townhouses with all the comforts of home.  The turn of the century residence halls have modern amenities such as security systems, common areas with refrigerators and microwaves, making the halls a comfortable place to study, relax, or just hang out with friends.

A Fisher student enjoys a short walk to class and the rest of Boston.  To apply for housing, deposited students should fill out the online Housing Application here.  The College will do its best to accommodate the Housing Preference Form submitted by students but unfortunately requests cannot be guaranteed.

You can learn more about different resident halls on our residential life page.

You can use our Unibuddy platform to chat with our current Fisher College students. In addition, you can see video presentations from faculty in different departments in order to learn more about your major.

Students entering in the Spring 2021 are able to speak with an academic advisor about their class schedule as soon as the deposit is made.  Appointments can be in-person, by phone call or Zoom.

For Freshman and Transfer students entering in Fall 2021, you will register for one of our four summer orientation days.  These dates are TBA.  At Summer Orientation, you will gain access to your new student portal, speak with academic advisors and meet your future classmates.  We encourage you to contact our admissions team if you have any questions.

You have received your financial aid offer but you need to discuss your various payment options to cover your gap.  Do not worry as we are here to assist you.  Find different financial aid and scholarship options, and a presentation from the financial aid office here.

Financial Aid Appeals are also available. Contact your admissions counselor to further discuss this important step.

Confirm your up-to-date health 

Make an appointment with your regular primary care physician for a complete physical. During your appointment, ask your doctor to update your immunizations to meet state regulations. Then return your completed health registration form, medical history, and immunization records to Health Services as soon as possible.

Confirm your insurance information 

Complete the insurance information form during your enrollment process. All students must have health insurance. Unfortunately, Fisher College can not accept health insurance from foreign countries, out of state medicaid plans, or hospital-based community plans. If you receive health benefits from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, please be aware that you must have your own MassHealth account by the age of 19.
