A majority of full-time students in the Graduate School-New Brunswick receive some financial aid and most full-time doctoral students receive full support. The amount of support each student receives depends, in part, upon the availability of funds. The level of support often is dependent upon the specific graduate program and the student's degree status. Aid ranges from loans to grants covering tuition charges, to awards sufficient to pay all educational and most living expenses. The sources of support include university funds, federal and state government funds, corporate and individual gifts and bequests to the university, and grants from educational and scientific foundations.
