Scholarship Opportunities

The Department of Teaching and Learning offers opportunities for tuition scholarships to help defray the costs of a graduate-level education.

Simmons School Financial-Need Scholarship

Applicants pursuing a graduate-level degree program are eligible to be considered for a financial-need scholarship.  Requirements for eligibility are: 1) complete the (FAFSA) application and 2) upload your Student Aid Report (SAR) or EFC Estimate to your °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²ÊÔ¤²â application. Since °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²ÊÔ¤²â's graduate program application typically takes a little more time to complete than the FAFSA, you are encouraged to submit the FAFSA before the application. The sooner the FAFSA is processed, the sooner we can determine your need for tuition assistance and find scholarship support for you. Just to assure you, FAFSA information is never used in the admission decision process. Please know that completion of the FAFSA does not require you to accept any loans through federal aid.

Master of Education with Educator Preparation

All applicants for the M.Ed. with Educator Preparation program are to apply for the Charles Butt Scholarship for Aspiring Teachers

Undergraduate Major in Educational Studies

You may apply for the Charles Butt Scholarship for Aspiring Teachers, a generous award available to our undergraduates.

Applicants may submit forms to financial aid before being accepted into the program.
