Scholarship Information for Graduate Students

Scholarship opportunities are found in your major's department or college. You can also check the Bengal Online Scholarship System (BOSS). If a non-resident or International student, you will want to apply for the Non-Resident Tuition Waiver (NRTW).

Some scholarship Awarding is based on demonstrated financial need. To be considered for any need-based awards, you must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) for the appropriate year.
