Incoming graduate students can apply for merit-based financial aid—fellowships, scholarships and instructional associate (IA) positions—by answering “yes” on the online application for admission by the published deadline. There are no further fellowship or scholarship opportunities for current students. The GRO will email IA and hourly job openings, along with associated deadlines and procedures, to continuing students each academic term.
Need-based aid is available in the form of government loans and is managed by the University’s Financial Aid Office, 200 Archbold, FinAidG1@syr.edu, 315-443-1513. You must file a FAFSAform and the applicable SU applications for financial aid via MySlice.
In the event of serious and unexpected financial need, special small grants of tuition scholarship may be made by the Newhouse School to assist students in the final stages of their degree programs. Near the end of the spring semester, the Associate Dean will publish a memo describing what is required to apply for this form of aid. This resource is extremely limited and can be used only in extreme situations for a maximum of three credits. A finite credit pool is available and once these credits have been allocated, no additional awards are possible.
