Financial aid for the program is awarded in bundles that span the time length of the program. There are 3 competitive Scholarship / Assistantship packages, which include a mix of scholarship funds and academic year and summer assistantships, ranging in value from approximately $13,000 to $20,000. In addition to these award packages, 6 Academic Year Assistantships are available, each worth approximately $7200 spread over the length of the program (these are counted as "non-teaching fellowships" in the APA categorization above, because they do not involve teaching and are not scholarships). There are also Thesis Scholarships (1 per semester) available to students working on their theses at the conclusion of the program.
