Other Forms of Assistance for Graduate Students
Assistantships and Tuition Discounts
Depending upon a graduate student's academic program, they may be eligible for a graduate assistantship and/or tuition discount. Students are encouraged to contact their program directly for more information. Documentation may be required by the academic department in order for students to receive this assistance.
Outside Scholarships
Students are strongly encouraged to pursue scholarships from outside the university. Your home community and the Internet can be great potential sources for a scholarship. Also, do not stop applying for scholarships once you have been enrolled at Shenandoah University. Outside scholarship opportunities will continue to become available throughout your academic career.
If you receive scholarships from outside of Shenandoah University, please make our office aware by submitting the Declaration of Outside Grants and Scholarships Form, available at the Financial Aid Office's Web site and is included in the financial aid award package.

Scholarship Scams
Throughout the year, the Financial Aid Office receives outside scholarship information we make available to SU students. This information is posted on a display board next to the University Business Office in Wilkins Hall. The board is updated regularly so be sure to check frequently throughout the academic year.
