Scholarship and Financial Aid
Merit-Based Financial Assistance
A limited number of graduate teaching assistantships are available; they provide full tuition waivers, stipends of $17,000 (academic year 2009–2010) for the nine-month year and an optional health insurance plan at no cost to the student. These positions are merit-based and awarded on a competitive basis, with most awards made in late March.
Applicants requesting teaching assistantships for fall admission must complete an online application and submit their personal statement, transcripts, recommendations and GRE test scores no later than March 1st. There is no deadline for admission, but allow up to eight weeks to process an application.
Scholarships & Financial Aid
Domestic students may be eligible for additional financial aid. A Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) form must be filed for a student to be considered for federal and state-funded aid. The Office of Financial Aid will notify you if further paperwork is required. Students are encouraged to file the FAFSA by March 1.
