Financial Aid:
Financial aid is available to students entering the program on a regular basis. This aid is typically given in the form of a half-tuition remission research assistantship which has a small stipend of no less than $1200 per year. Some students may be eligible to receive up to three-quarters tuition remission based on merit. Three full tuition remission Minority Fellowships which include a minimum stipend of $3500 are available for minority students.  In the second and third years of training Ph.D. students are eligible to teach undergraduate courses as Teaching Fellows.  These positions earn the student a $2400 stipend and three credits of tuition remission.  In future years some entering students may receive only one-quarter tuition remission research assistantships due to budgetary constraints.  All students should submit financial aid forms at the same time that they are applying for admission to the program.
