Financial Aid
- The School of Art is able to offer a limited number of fee waivers, fellowships and graduate assistantships for graduate students in good standing. These awards are usually assigned during the Spring semester. The staff posts announcements on departmental bulletin boards as they occur, so it is a good idea to read the information posted. Student employment is also available in some areas. Staying in touch with the program director of your area is always recommended. Unfortunately, the School of Art has no funds available at this time for temporary loans.
