  Graduate School-New Brunswick 2003-2005 Financial Aid Need-Based Financial Aid Grants  

Grants

State Grant.  Full-time graduate students, who are classified as New Jersey residents for tuition purposes and who demonstrate financial need, are eligible to receive a New Jersey State Grant. Amounts, which vary from $200 to $1,000 per year, are dependent upon available funds. Application is made by submitting a FAFSA. EOF grant recipients are not eligible.

Educational Opportunity Fund (EOF).  New Jersey residents who are full-time students and who can demonstrate backgrounds of financial and academic hardship are eligible for EOF grants ranging from $200 to $2,650. Students who received EOF grants as undergraduates are presumed eligible if they fall below the maximum income parameters required for all recipients of this state grant. Graduate students who did not receive EOF grants as undergraduates, but feel that they come from backgrounds of financial hardship and wish to be considered, should write to the financial aid office for consideration. The grants are renewable for the duration of a student`s degree work. The student must demonstrate continued eligibility and provide evidence of satisfactory academic progress. In addition, students must complete the FAFSA.
