Merit-Based Assistance
The GSPM has a limited number of merit-based scholarships that have been given by alumni, friends of the School, and members of the Council on American Politics. These funds, some of which are endowed, are available on an irregular basis and awarded by the Admissions Committee.
To be considered for such an award, you must check "yes" to question #20 in the application, and your application must be received by the stated application deadline:
Fall admission - June 15
Spring admission - November 15
Please note that merit-based assistance is not available to summer applicants.
If you have been selected for a merit-based award, you will be notified by July 1 for Fall applicants and by December 1 for Spring applicants.
Inquiries should be made to the Director of Student Services, unless otherwise noted.
