Aid for Part-Time Students

The Graduate part-time student grant provides $150 per graduate credit hour up to $900 per semester to part-time graduate students in good academic standing that meet the following criteria:

  • The part-time grant may only be used towards a graduate level course.
  • The part-time grant voucher must be completed every semester and is due to Student Administrative Services (SAS) within 10 days of the start of each semester (the voucher can be obtained by contacting SAS).
  • Payment in full or an approved payment plan must be received along with the voucher.

Graduate students who are receiving any form of financial assistance other than student loans, including, but not limited to grants, scholarships, discounted tuition, and tuition remission or employer reimbursement are not eligible.

Graduate students receiving any financial aid are required to make satisfactory academic progress toward a degree to remain eligible for financial assistance. Lack of satisfactory academic progress may result in the loss of financial aid.

Written explanations on financial aid policies are mailed with the award notification.
