Overview

  • Level: Undergraduate / PhD
  • Location: Pasadena, California, USA
  • Undergraduate duration: 4 years
  • PhD duration: programme-specific
  • Focus: science، engineering، mathematics، technology، research-intensive fields

International financial-aid timeline for Fall 2027 not fully published yet. Graduate deadlines usually 1–15 December depending on programme.

Undergraduate Need-Based Aid

Caltech commits to meeting 100% of demonstrated financial need for admitted students who apply for aid.

Aid may cover

  • tuition.
  • mandatory fees.
  • housing.
  • food.
  • books/supplies.
  • personal expenses.
  • other approved cost-of-attendance items.

Scholarships are gifts and do not need repayment. Amount varies by family circumstances; no fixed universal award.

Named donor scholarships may be assigned automatically and remain primarily need-based.

Caltech does not award general undergraduate merit scholarships simply for grades، competitions or test scores.

Family-income examples currently stated by Caltech

  • most families earning under USD 200,000 with typical assets may expect aid covering tuition.
  • most families earning under USD 100,000 with typical assets may expect no-loan package covering tuition، fees، housing and food.

Actual package is individualized.

Critical Rule for International Students

international applicants must indicate when first applying that they intend to seek financial aid. If they do not apply for aid as incoming first-years, or apply and do not qualify in first year, they generally cannot request institutional need-based aid later. Limited exceptions may exist for citizens/permanent residents of Canada/Mexico.

International transfer and 3/2 applicants are not eligible for Caltech institutional aid.

Need-Aware Admission

Caltech is need-aware for international applicants, meaning requested aid may be considered during admission because international aid funds are limited. However, once an aid applicant is admitted, Caltech meets demonstrated need.

PhD Financial Support

All incoming PhD students are offered packages covering

  • full tuition.
  • mandatory fees.
  • monthly stipend/salary.
  • Caltech contribution toward student health-care plan.
  • support through fellowships، RA or TA.

Current PhD stipend

USD 50,000/year from 1 September 2026

≈ USD 4,166/month.

2026–27 graduate tuition + mandatory fees cited

(USD 68,574 tuition + USD 2,448 fees)

covered under standard funded PhD package.

Funding Sources

  • Institute fellowships.
  • endowed fellowships.
  • research assistantships.
  • teaching assistantships.
  • faculty grants.
  • external fellowships.

Demonstrate financial need

Complete the required financial aid application

Submit the required family financial documents

There is no minimum family income required to apply. Caltech calculates demonstrated need by considering factors including family income, assets, household size and certain expenses.

Academic Requirements

Caltech expects first-year applicants to complete a demanding secondary-school curriculum.

Students should demonstrate preparation including

Four years of mathematics, including calculus

One year of physics

One year of chemistry

Biology recommended

Four years of English

At least two years of history or social sciences

For students who genuinely cannot take calculus, chemistry or physics because the course is unavailable or because of an irresolvable scheduling conflict, Caltech allows specific examinations or approved certifications to demonstrate subject mastery. Caltech requires either the SAT or ACT for Fall 2027 first-year applicants. Test results are considered as one component of the university’s holistic admission process.

Undergraduate English Requirements

International applicants must submit an English proficiency test unless

English is their native language; or

English is the primary language of instruction at their secondary school.

Caltech accepts

IELTS

TOEFL

Duolingo English Test

The current minimum requirements are

TestMinimum

IELTS7.0 overall and 7.0 in each area

TOEFL – revised scale5 overall and 5 in each area

Duolingo English Test130

Applicants whose school teaches primarily in English but whose native language is not English are not required to submit a test, although Caltech strongly recommends doing so. You can also read our guide to scholarships without IELTS, but Caltech makes the final decision on whether an applicant qualifies for an English-test exemption.

PhD Eligibility

Graduate applicants must

Hold a bachelor’s degree or international equivalent before beginning graduate study

Apply to an eligible Caltech graduate programme

Submit transcripts from all colleges and universities attended

Provide three recommendation letters

Submit a CV

Complete the required essays

Meet programme-specific academic requirements

Meet any GRE requirements set by the selected programme

Demonstrate strong preparation for research

Caltech does not impose one official minimum graduate GPA. However, the Graduate Studies Office states that most successful applicants have approximately a 3.5/4.0 GPA or higher or rank within the top 5–10% of their class. International applicants should not convert their grades into a US GPA unless their institution already reports a US GPA. GRE requirements differ by programme. Some departments recommend the GRE, some require it and others do not accept it, so applicants must check their chosen programme individually. Graduate applicants whose native language is not English are encouraged to demonstrate strong English proficiency. Caltech accepts recognised tests including TOEFL, IELTS, PTE and Duolingo, but the Graduate Studies Office does not impose one university-wide minimum score.

This decision is important because international students who do not apply for aid during first-year admission generally cannot request institutional financial aid in later years.

  • Complete the CSS Profile.

Caltech uses the CSS Profile to assess the family’s financial circumstances and calculate demonstrated need. International applicants who qualify for a CSS Profile fee waiver may receive a payment code from Caltech.

Parents’ national tax returns

Foreign tax documents

Frequently Asked Questions

Are Caltech Scholarships fully funded?

Caltech undergraduate scholarships are need-based rather than one fixed fully funded award. Caltech meets 100% of demonstrated financial need for admitted students who apply for aid, so students with very high financial need can receive very substantial funding. Caltech PhD programmes are fully funded. Incoming doctoral students receive tuition and fee coverage together with a living stipend or salary.

Is Caltech need-blind for international students?

No. Caltech is need-aware for international applicants because its international financial aid budget is limited. The amount of aid an international applicant requires can therefore be considered during admission.

Does Caltech meet 100% of demonstrated financial need?

Yes. Caltech commits to meeting 100% of demonstrated financial need for admitted students who apply for financial assistance.

Does Caltech offer merit scholarships?

Caltech does not offer general undergraduate merit scholarships. Its undergraduate Caltech Scholarships are based on demonstrated financial need. Some donor-funded named scholarships include additional merit criteria, but students are considered for them automatically.

Can international transfer students receive financial aid?

No. Caltech states that institutional financial aid is not available to international transfer or 3/2 applicants.

How much is the Caltech PhD stipend?

The current Caltech PhD stipend is US$50,000 per year, equivalent to approximately US$4,166 per month.

Does Caltech PhD funding cover tuition?

Yes. The standard PhD financial package covers tuition and mandatory fees in addition to providing a stipend or salary.

Do I need a separate application for PhD funding?

Normally no. All students entering Caltech doctoral programmes are offered a financial aid package as part of their graduate admission.

Are Caltech master’s programmes funded?

Not generally. Caltech states that some terminal master’s students are admitted without financial support. Programme-specific fellowships may occasionally be available, but master’s applicants should not assume that Caltech will cover their tuition and living expenses.

Is SAT or ACT required for Caltech?

Yes. Caltech requires Fall 2027 first-year applicants to submit either SAT or ACT results.

Is IELTS compulsory for Caltech?

Not for every international applicant. Students are exempt from the undergraduate English-test requirement if English is their native language or the primary language of instruction at their secondary school. Other international applicants can submit IELTS, TOEFL or Duolingo.

What is the Caltech application fee?

The current application fees are

Undergraduate: US$85

Graduate: US$100

Fee waivers are available to eligible applicants.
