Financial Assistance

^TOP |
Among the financial assistance programs available to SVSU graduate students are:
Private Scholarships
A limited number of private scholarships are available to qualified full- and part-time graduate students. Selection criteria differ for each scholarship as the scholarships are competitive.
Tuition Reimbursement
Many companies reimburse employees for graduate-level course work. Students should check with their employer’s human resources department for further information on this benefit.
College Work-Study
A limited number of students are eligible to work under this program. Students must apply for financial aid using the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, and must establish financial need.
Direct Loan Program
Graduate students enrolled at half time (five credits) may borrow up to the cost of attendance at SVSU through the Direct Loan Program. This program consists of two types of loans — subsidized and unsubsidized Stafford Loans. To be eligible for a subsidized Stafford Loan, students first must establish financial need. Students who qualify for a subsidized loan then may borrow up to $8,500. The interest on this type of loan is paid by the federal government while the student is attending school. Students who do not demonstrate financial need may borrow through the unsubsidized Stafford Loan program. The interest on an unsubsidized loan is the responsibility of the student, and may be paid while in school, or may be added to the loan principle. To apply for either Stafford Loan, students must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid.
President’s International Graduate Student Scholarship
Funded by SVSU, the International Graduate Student Scholarship provides partial tuition scholarships each year to a number of students who demonstrate a background of academic excellence. The scholarship is awarded each Fall. The award amount is $3,000 per semester for a maximum of 4 semesters. Students must register for a full course load each semester (9 credits) and maintain a minimum 3.2 grade point average (GPA). To be eligible, students must be admitted to an SVSU graduate program, hold an F-1 visa, and have a minimum 3.00 GPA in previous academic work. Students must submit a completed application, a 500-600 word essay, two letters of recommendation and a current resume in English. Instructions for completing the essay, letters of recommendation, resume and scholarship applications are available from the Office of International Programs.
