stipend. All graduate applicants are eligible to apply for assistantships,
although some preference is given to applicants for the Ph.D.

Georgia State University

Graduate Research Assistantships (GRAs), with an annual stipend, are

available for award to M.A. students. GRAs typically work with a faculty
member as a research assistant for ten hours a week during the academic
year.

Miami University of Ohio

Normally, each student may be supported with a departmental Graduate

Assistantship for a maximum of two years. All applicants for admission to
the full-time MA program in History are considered for assistantships.
History Department Graduate Assistantships pay a stipend and include a
remission of university instructional fees for the regular school year.

Ohio State University

The History Department awards graduate teaching assistantships that carry

stipends and tuition waivers. The Contemporary History Institute (opens in a

6
new window) has fellowships that it awards to selected graduate students
admitted to its program.

University policy sets limits on the duration of funding for graduate students.
According to that policy, a graduate student with a graduate degree from
another institution (e.g. a Ph.D. student who earned an M.A. elsewhere) can
receive a maximum of 10 semesters of tuition support, excluding summers.
A graduate student without a graduate degree from another institution (e.g.
either an M.A. student or a Ph.D. student with an M.A. from Ohio) can
receive a maximum of 12 semesters of graduate tuition scholarship.

Texas Tech University

The Department of History awards Teaching Assistantships annually. The

stipends currently range from $14,000 to $20,000, and include in-state
tuition status as well as the waiver of some fees. Teaching Assistant duties
include grading, supervising discussion sections for freshman survey
courses, and teaching independent sections of U.S. History. The selection
process is competitive and decisions for the next academic year are made in
the latter part of the spring semester of each year. Depending on
departmental staffing needs and individual performance both as a student
and as a teacher, Teaching Assistantships can be renewed for up to one year
for MA students and three years for PhD students.

Washington State University

The only type of financial assistance regularly offered by the Department of

History is the teaching assistantship. Appointments of teaching assistants
are announced each year near the end of the spring semester. Two general
factors determine appointments as teaching assistants: availability of funds
and the academic quality of the applicants as judged by the faculty of the
Department of History. Normally appointments are for one year and are
renewable competitively, if funds are available, on the basis of academic
quality and satisfactory performance of assigned duties as judged by the

8
faculty of the Department of History. Students may hold teaching
assistantships for a maximum of 2 years while enrolled in the M.A. program
and 4 years if enrolled in the Ph.D. program. Research assistantships and

European Master Program in Language and Communication Technologies.

Language and communication technologies provide people with natural ways to
communicate with machines, information repositories and other people. This
“computing with language(s)” is a rapidly growing field that draws on a unique
mix of skills and approaches from multiple disciplines, across the humanities (e.g.
linguistics, psychology) and technical sciences (e.g. computer science, artificial
intelligence, software engineering, machine learning). It is therefore difficult for a
single university to cover the full range of complex and diverse skills and attain
excellence across such a breadth of disciplines. The “European Master Program in
Language and Communication Technologies” (LCT) joins forces and combines top
expertise across Europe in order to (A) provide world-class training in LCT with a
broad multi-disciplinary basis; (B) foster excellence for future generations of

78
 experts and leaders in LCT research and innovation; (C) become a bridge and
facilitator between academia and industry in the European higher education area;
(D) Nurture inclusiveness and diversity w.r.t. vulnerable groups and regions with
social/economic challenges.

Harvard opportunities, including research fellowships, research
assistantships, and teaching fellowships.

New York University

Key to the doctoral training offered by the NYU Department of Sociology is a

distinguished faculty doing cutting-edge research on topics important to
theory and policy. The faculty includes individuals using diverse perspectives
and methodological approaches. Thus, the selective cohort of 9-12 students
admitted each year receives training that is broad and deep. Areas in which
the department has faculty strength include: Comparative/Historical
Sociology; Criminology and Law; Culture; Demography; Education;
Environment; Family; Gender; Inequality; Political Sociology; Qualitative
Methods; Quantitative Methods; Theory; and Urban Sociology.

fellowships such as those awarded by the American Sociological Association
and federally-funded programs which are awarded directly to students.

University of Toronto

The Faculty of Arts and Science has instituted a base funding package that
covers MA students in their one year program, and PhD students for four or
five years (depending on whether the student enters directly from a BA, or
completes an MA before entering the program). This multi-year PhD base
funding is intended to cover the period in which the student is engaged in
fulfilling the major requirements of the program: course work, area
research, thesis research and writing. The total funding package for the
2019-20 academic year is equal to tuition + $17,500 and is met by a
balance of three components: I) the U of T Fellowship, ii) Teaching
Assistantships (TA), and iii) Research Assistantships (RA). Students who do
not complete their degree by their final year of funding may be eligible for
TA-ships in subsequent years. TA assignments are subject to the subsequent
appointment provisions of the Collective Agreement that covers TAs.

University of Washington

We automatically consider all applicants for both admission AND financial

support. As a matter of departmental policy, admitted students are typically
offered a multi-year funding package as part of their offer of admission. The
vast majority of our students are funded throughout their time in graduate
school, with a mix of teaching positions, research assistantships, and
fellowships. If you have already secured outside financial support to support
your graduate studies (i.e. an NSF or Fulbright Fellowship), please let us
know.

177
Vanderbilt University, Department of Sociology

All students admitted to the Ph.D. program are offered funding, which
includes a 12-month stipend, a full tuition waiver, and student health
insurance*. If students continue to make good progress in the program,
funding typically continues for five years. Outstanding applicants may also
be eligible for departmental, College of Arts and Science, or University
fellowships that supplement the standard stipend. The department
nominates outstanding applicants for these awards; there is no separate
application process.

Full Funding Awards for a Master of Business Administration (MBA)

Forté Fellows Program

Forté Fellowships are prestigious, competitive awards that are recognized

within the business school community and beyond. Forté Fellows exhibit
exemplary leadership, represent diverse backgrounds, and demonstrate a
commitment to advancing women in business — all of which aligns with
Forté's mission. To date, our partner schools have awarded $277 million to
more than 11,000 Forté Fellows.

Fulbright/Instituto de Empresa Grants

Applicants for study/research awards design their own projects and will
typically work with advisers at foreign universities or other institutes of
higher education. The study/research awards are available in approximately
140 countries. Program requirements vary by country, so the applicants' first
step is to familiarize themselves with the program summary for the host
country.

leadership potential.

Stanford University’s Knight-Hennessy Scholars Fellowship

The education of Knight-Hennessy Scholars is funded for up to three years

for any graduate degree(s) at Stanford to which you are admitted at the
time you are selected as a scholar. If your degree program exceeds three
years — such as an MD or PhD program, or a Stanford dual- or joint-degree
program — then your Stanford home department(s) will fund the remainder
of your education to the extent consistent with its standard funding
commitment for that program. (That means, for example, your program may
fund you for one additional year for some PhDs and three additional years
for others.)

Stanford University’s USA MBA Fellowship

Applying to business school is a big life decision, and you should start
planning financially before you embark on this journey. Stanford GSB admits
an accomplished and diverse class of students without regard to their
financial situation.
