Scholarships

All admitted students are automatically considered for scholarships ranging from US $4,000 to US $14,000 per year.  Scholarships are renewable for a second year, depending upon the recipient’s program and academic performance.

Scholarships are applied to tuition only and do not cover living expenses.  Awards are made on the basis of academic records, current resumes, and letters of recommendation and the statement of purpose – all of which are components of the application process.

A separate application is not required

For optimal scholarship consideration, please ensure that your complete application, support documents and US $50 application fee are submitted to the Admissions Office by the following dates:
