Special Fee Waivers

You are eligible for an application fee waiver if you received an invitation e-mail or advertisement from Brandeis University. Please follow the instructions below to ensure that your fee is appropriately waived. Please note that if you reached this page in error and did not receive an e-mail from us or redirect from an advertisement, you are ineligible for a fee waiver. We will verify our records upon submission of your application that you were an eligible fee waiver recipient.

1. Begin filling out the GSAS online application.

2. On the “additional information” page of the online application you will be asked to  “select an affiliation (if applicable)." Select Venture Scholar, which is our name for eligible fee waiver recipients. If you have another affiliation listed, please note that you may only select one.

3. Continue to fill out the application normally.

4. Should any questions arise, please contact Jaclyn Farina, Assistant Director for Admission Operations for GSAS.

Please note that the Venture Scholar fee waiver is applicable to Graduate School of Arts and Sciences programs ONLY and is not applicable to programs in the Heller School of Social Policy and Management, the International Business School, or the Rabb School: Graduate Professional Studies.
