The Office of Student Financial Aid offers grant and scholarship opportunities to graduate and professional students. These funds are awarded to Washington resident students on the basis of financial need. The Graduate Tuition Exemption and Graduate University Grant programs are for students in state-funded programs. These grants are not available to students in fee-based programs. There are also a few scholarship programs from private donors awarded by our office. It is important to complete the FAFSA application by our priority deadline in case you could be eligible for any of these grant and scholarship programs.
Please remember these are not the only sources of grant or scholarship assistance available to graduate and professional students at the University of Washington. The Graduate School and your academic department are the primary sources for this type of funding at the UW. Please check with these two sources directly for additional assistance!
If you are a graduate student at University of Washington-Bothell or University of Washington-Tacoma, please visit these sites for more information about scholarship opportunities.
