ScholarshipsWe’re committed to helping you make your graduate education more affordable. Last year, we awarded more than $6.5 million in financial support to our students. In fact, every applicant is considered for the merit-based scholarships for which they’re eligible during the admissions process.Scholarships are awarded to offset tuition costs. The scholarship amount is determined at the time of admission, usually in the form of a percentage that will be waived out of the tuition charges incurred each semester. For master’s and advanced certificate students, this percentage is guaranteed for the expected timeframe for completion of the program, provided you are making good academic progress.Scholarships can be used to supplement other external scholarships or employee tuition benefits the student may be eligible for. However, these other sources of financial aid must be disclosed in advance and must be credited before any scholarship is applied.
