Funding Questions

Are you a newly admitted student and have questions about how to fund your education?

Many international students inquire about funding, which can often be difficult to secure in the US.  Our office is does not present financial awards nor do we have the best information to advise on funding opportunities.  Therefore, checking directly with the department into which you were admitted should be your first step.

Federal student aid can usually only be secured for U.S. citizens, so many international students apply for assistantships or scholarships.  The links provided below should be able to guide you to more appropriate contacts to utilize in your search.
