Partner Spotlight: Welcome, Hamilton College!

LINK is thrilled to welcome back Hamilton College as a Collegiate Partner! This original partnership dates back many years, when several LINK Scholars attended and graduated from Hamilton in the 1980s and 1990s. We are glad to be back in partnership with them.
Located in upstate New York, Hamilton is a private liberal arts college offering test-optional admissions, an open curriculum, 58 areas of study, and small class sizes—with fewer than 20 students in most classes.

“We are very excited to begin this partnership, and I think it will provide an amazing opportunity to connect with students from across Chicago,” shared Associate Dean of Admissions and Director of Diversity Recruitment Kaitlin Oliver.
Through this partnership, LINK Scholars will have access to:
- Application fee waivers
- Financial aid packages meeting 100% of demonstrated need through graduation
- Fly-in and pre-orientation programs
- Exclusive information sessions
We look forward to collaborating with Hamilton College to support LINK Scholars as they explore their college options and navigate the application process!
