Eligibility
Only U.S. citizens and permanent residents are eligible for U.S. federal loans
and the work-study program. Those persons entering the U.S. on a student visa
(J-1 or F-1) are not considered permanent residents. The School of Design gives
out need-based financial assistance to international students. These awards
cover only a portion of the tuition; we generally do not grant full tuition
scholarships to students enrolled in Masters programs. In addition, a limited
number of departmental scholarships are awarded by the Chairs to outstanding
applicants who show exceptional ability.
Application Procedures
Applicants must check the appropriate box on
the School of Design application form indicating that they
are applying for financial aid. In addition, they should download
and fill out the following three forms:
NOTE:
Completed forms should
be returned to the Office of Admissions no
later than March 1.
PhD Programs
Students enrolled
in the Ph.D. programs are expected to be either fully supported
by outside sources or must be fully funded by their Departments.
Full funding in the form of a University Fellowship is available
to a very limited number of entering students.
Employment
All students in the School of Design are required to be
full-time participants in order to receive their awarded
financial aid.
Although students may be employed either on or off campus,
it is not advised that they work more than fifteen to twenty
hours per week. International students entering under F-1
visas are permitted to work on campus but are prohibited
by
law from having employment off campus.
