Scholarships
A limited number of merit scholarships are available for MSL students. Incoming students are automatically considered for merit scholarships once they have been admitted to the program.
Federal regulations and university policy require the Office of Student Financial Aid to consider scholarships as financial resources in determining financial need. Therefore, a scholarship award may reduce loan eligibility.
Loans
MSL students are also eligible to apply for student loans from the federal government to cover tuition and living expenses. To determine your eligibility, complete a government form called the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) as soon as possible after you are admitted to the program.
