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.
Scholarships are awards that go directly to paying for your education and that do not have to be repaid. These include general university scholarships awarded to incoming freshman by our Office of Undergraduate Admissions and departmental scholarships awarded by a variety of university departments.
