SCHOLARSHIPS & FINANCIAL AID
Since Defiance College cannot provide need-based financial assistance for international students, the student must submit documentation that sufficient financial resources are available from family or outside sources for the period of study at Defiance College. This documentation may take the form of a certified or notarized letter from the sponsor's bank or a scholarship letter from the student's government and should accompany the Statement of Financial Resources.

Defiance College admits students regardless of race, color, religion, gender, age, national and ethnic origin, disability, or sexual orientation.
