Financial Assistance
The Heller School offers a limited number of partial-tuition scholarships to students in the programs in Sustainable International Development. Scholarships provide tuition remission; they do not include travel and other expenses. Due to the volume of applications for financial aid, we cannot fully fund students to join the master's program. The programs do not offer financial assistance for living expenses except in the case of particular fellowships or scholarships detailed on the scholarships page. If you believe you fit the requirements for one or more of the named scholarships or fellowships, please list which one(s) you would like to apply for in the financial aid section of the application form. Students are encouraged to apply for financial aid as early as possible, as it increases the chance of receiving it.
Information about loans can be found here.
Everything in the student loan world is based on the estimated cost of attendance. This is a great tool for you to use in creating your own budget as well. The U.S. federal government determines how much it costs to go to school for one year for each specific area. We work with those estimates, and based on our experience and student feedback, we have created our own estimated costs of attendance.
