Graduate Scholarship—General information

Partial scholarships are awarded to qualified students who are seeking a graduate degree and who have an outstanding academic record. The amount of the awards and the guidelines for selection are determined each year by the Graduate Council. These awards are separate and distinct from any special funds or scholarships awarded by specific programs. Scholarships are applicable to a maximum of 12 graduate courses in a graduate program.

The scholarship applicant must have been accepted to the graduate program as a regular degree-seeking student. To be eligible for scholarship consideration upon admission, an

undergraduate grade point average of at least 3.5 (on a 4.0 scale) and enrollment in at least 6 semester hours per award term is required. New students must apply for an award prior

to registration for their first term in the program; annual renewals may be available to qualified awardees. Scholarships or awards generally will not be qualified retroactively (after

first-term enrollment), but special awards may be given to select students as recommended by the program. Preference may be given to students with little or no funding from other sources (grants, employee reimbursement, etc.). Awards may be reduced if “gift funds” become available from other sources.
