The Graduate School sponsors one hundred University Graduate Fellowships. This prestigious fellowship program is available to incoming students and provides payment of tuition and a base stipend of $30,000 for 2019-2020/2020-2021, as well as a health insurance subsidy. Some colleges increase the stipend with their own funding.

Selection of University Graduate Fellows is made at the college level. Interested prospective students should contact their graduate programs for details on the college's awarding deadline, requirements, and procedures.
