Financial Aid

We realize that financing a graduate education can be a challenge. We also realize that you’ve come to SIPA to do important work.  The Financial Aid Office’s job is to help you make sure that the cost of a graduate degree will not stand in the way of your goals.

The majority of SIPA students receive some type of financial assistance, including institutionally funded Fellowships and Scholarships, student loans, and on-campus employment. Many others are supported by outside grants, sponsors, or employer tuition benefits. 

Information about the financial aid process is detailed in the links in the menu on the right hand side of this page. Please familiarize yourself with this information and feel free to contact us if you have questions. We look forward to working with you as you continue your education.
