Financial Assistance

In general, graduate students receiving financial assistance are expected to take 12 hours of course work (minimum of 9 credits) each semester, and to work a minimum of 10 hours per week on assigned instructional, administrative or research duties. A variety of packages are available to a number of highly qualified MBA students who choose to attend on a full-time basis. All awards are competitive, with first year's aid based upon previous academic performance and work experience. The second year award is based upon the prior year's performance in the MBA program, although a second year of Graduate Assistance is not guaranteed. Awards include Graduate Assistantships, Corporate Associateships and Fellowships.

It is important for students who want to be considered for financial aid to apply as early as possible. For example, the Fall semester application deadline is May 1, however students seeking financial aid through the MBA Programs are required to submit their applications by February 1.
