Financial Aid

Financial Aid for Graduate Students

For many students, financial assistance is essential in funding their education. Our goal is to ensure that all students with the drive and determination to complete our professional programs have the opportunity to do so.

As a Boston University student, you may be eligible for federal student aid in the form of grants, scholarships, and educational loans. There is no cost to apply for financial assistance, and you may qualify for a student loan regardless of your income.

In general, you must meet the following criteria for eligibility:

Be accepted as a degree-seeking student, or

Be making satisfactory academic progress
Be a U.S. citizen, national or permanent resident alien enrolled at least half time (6 credits)
Not be in default on prior student loans
Not owe a repayment or overpayment of a federal grant

Scholarships

There are many different types of public and private scholarships available to a diverse range of students. While there are currently no scholarships available at BU, opportunities are offered from an outside source. They usually require applicants to meet specific academic, social, or economic requirements that are unique to each scholarship program.
