Graduate Student Aid

In order to make the programs of the Graduate Institute available to men and women of diverse circumstances, the college makes an effort to close the gap that may exist between the cost of these programs and students’ financial resources. This financial assistance takes the form of St. John’s grants and low-interest loans through the Stafford Loan Program, and is awarded on the basis of need. In recent years, at least 50% of the students in the Graduate Institute have qualified for some form of financial assistance. St. John’s grants are applicable only to tuition, while loans may also be used to cover living expenses.

New Students

Applications for financial aid from approved applicants are processed on a rolling basis. Because the availability of grants is limited, and they are awarded on a first-come, first-serve basis, applicants are urged to apply as early as possible. Applicants are notified of their financial aid award within three weeks of the approval of their admissions applications or of the completed submission of the required financial aid documentation, whichever is later. No action will be taken on a financial application until a candidate is approved for admission.
