Each accepted candidate is considered for a Graduate Merit Scholarship. Your scholarship award letter will accompany your admission letter. If awarded, this merit scholarship will not cover all of your expenses.
Each assistantship applicant must submit a completed assistantship application, three letters of reference and a statement of objectives. The priority deadline for all assistantship applications is January 15. Applications received after the program designated deadline will be considered, but late applicants may be at a disadvantage in terms of being admitted and/or receiving scholarships, fellowships and assistantships. It is the student’s responsibility to ensure that the graduate admissions office receives all materials required for evaluation of the application before the deadline. All English language proficiency requirements apply. For details visit the Graduate Student Assistantship website.
