Truth is an elusive concept these days—but not at Davidson. For us, truth is not a set of answers, it’s a way of being—defined by deep sincerity, intellectual bravery, unquestioned integrity, fundamental decency. This is the foundation that makes the Davidson experience a true examination of self and world. And why relationships formed here are ties that bind, with impact that is boundless.
If your students can't get to one of our visit programs, we hope they'll come to visit on their own. We welcome visits from counselors, too.

Davidson meets 100% of the calculated financial need of every admitted student. Aid applicants who meet all the aid application deadlines have an aid package that includes student employment and grant funds only--no loans will be imposed. Davidson offers merit scholarships to those students who most powerfully represent elements of the community we value -- academics, the arts, athletics, leadership, and service. Some awards require nominations that can be submitted by applicants' schools.
Lowell L. Bryan Scholarship: nominations deadline is September 27
John M. Belk Scholarship: nomination deadline is November 1
