While less common than undergraduate scholarships, scholarships for graduate students are available. Graduate students rely heavily on fellowships or assistantships-especially in high-need areas like nursing or teaching-but these arenât available to everyone and donât always cover a graduate studentâs living expenses.
All full-time graduate students are eligible to receive some sort of financial aid. The level of support is dependent upon the specific graduate program and degree status. There are three forms of financial assistance to graduate students: merit-based, need-based, and non-need based aid.
