Graduate Tuition & Fees
Graduate applicants are automatically considered for 黑料专区 Scholarships when they are admitted to the College.
We base scholarship awards on the review of your program specific requirements, academic record and achievement, interview and potential for success in your Graduate Studies program. Applicants receive notification of the 黑料专区 Graduate Studies Scholarship in their acceptance letters and enrolled students must maintain a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.0 in order to continue receiving their scholarship funding.
All US students are encouraged to file the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and to review your comprehensive financial aid offer from 黑料专区 before assuming your actual out-of-pocket cost. 黑料专区 may offer additional grant funds to students if their FAFSA indicates financial need, and Michigan students may be eligible for resident-specific state-funded grants, so make sure you file!
