The department typically awards stipends on a competitive basis to six new students annually. The current (academic year 2023-24) is $19,574.40 for the nine-month academic year, which also covers tuition and health benefits. For our strongest applicants, we may also offer a Chair’s Fellowship which adds $2,000 to the base stipend and the Graduate Dean's Award, which supports academically excellent applicants from diverse backgrounds. The Graduate Dean’s Award adds $2,5000 to the base stipend.
Stipends are guaranteed for five years contingent on making good progress through the program. When you apply for the program, you are automatically considered for a stipend, the Chair’s Fellowship, and the Graduate Dean’s Award.
