You will indicate in the application if you want to be considered for an academic merit-based fellowship. The information provided in the application is sufficient and no additional information needs to be submitted by the applicant to receive a fellowship. Academic merit is determined by the selection committee during the admissions process. Top ranked candidates are offered larger scholarships.

There are needs-based grants based on a student's demonstrated financial need. If an applicant reaches the interview stage in the admissions process, that applicant is invited to complete a CSS Profile. The graduate admissions office uses the CSS Profile to assess the applicant’s financial situation. Grant funds are then allocated equitably across the cohort to provide as large a grant as possible to each admitted applicant who has completed the profile.

In past intakes, most admitted applicants were offered scholarships and grants covering 30%-80% of the tuition and fees. The top academically-ranked admitted applicants were offered scholarships and grants covering 80-100% of their tuition & fees.
