This scholarship is only for Graduate School of Arts and Sciences programs. It is not for the Heller School, Brandeis’ International Business School, or Rabb Graduate Professional Studies. Alumni enrolling in most GSAS master's programs are eligible for up to a $2,000 alumni scholarship in addition to their other financial awards.* To be eligible for this alumni scholarship, students must maintain a minimum of two semesters in residency in a GSAS program. In the Master of Arts in Teaching program and the MS in Biotechnology program, the alumni scholarship replaces any other merit funding.
Students admitted to any Hornstein program, Genetic Counseling, or the five-year bachelor's/master's program in Biotechnology are not eligible for the alumni scholarship. Four-year bachelor's/master's students are not eligible for the GSAS alumni scholarship as financial assistance is managed through the undergraduate financial aid office.
Please note that the Alumni Scholarship is not available to students awarded scholarships that cover 100% of tuition.
