Financial Aid at Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Boston University

Categories are  financial-aid /  loans  tagged  stem /  educational-fund

At the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences (GRS) Boston University, the knowledge and skills of MA and MS students are appreciated. The GRS offers different ways to help students financially during their education, such as scholarships, fellowships, and research assistantships, with loans and external funding.

  • It's important to note that the financial aid received by students, is meant to help pay for things that are necessary for their degree, like tuition and the classes. It can't be used for things like buying a sports pass, getting transportation passes, or paying off library fines, or late fees. If you're doing a master's degree, the aid won't pay for classes where you just want to listen but not get a grade such as auditing courses. So, it's important to use the aid for your essential school expenses only.
  • If you borrow money from Boston University for things like tuition, fees, living in their residences, or dining, then they won't give you your diploma, degree certificate, or official school records until you give them all the borrowed money. So, you have to make sure you've paid everything you owe before you can finish your studies and get your diploma or official school papers.
  • When it's time to give back any extra money from the financial help you got, like scholarships or work you did at the school, GRS has a very clear way of doing it for all types of help. They do it the same way for everyone. And if you get financial help from the government, they follow special rules from the government while returning any extra money.
  • Lastly, if you're a Boston University employee, you're not eligible for financial aid from GRS. This means you won't receive financial support from GRS while working at the university.

To sum it up, we can say that The GRS, Boston University helps students in many different ways, but it is also the duty of students to repay the money they borrowed from the university or else they will not be eligible to receive their degree

A graduate program in traditional Chinese medicine can be expensive and take a lot of time. The Emperor's Financial Aid department is dedicated to helping students find the money they need to pay for their education. They're there to assist with financial resources so that students can afford their educational expenses. 


There are two types of federal financial aid available to Master’s students:

  • Graduate PLUS Loans with an interest rate of 7.54%, have a federal loan origination fee of 4.228%.


Master’s students are offered the opportunity to gain a maximum of $20,500 every 3 quarters which means every 9 months in Stafford Unsubsidized Loans.

Whereas, full-time master’s students are eligible for a maximum of $48,399 every 3 quarters (9 months) with the inclusion of Graduate PLUS Loans. 

Once a student has borrowed a total of $138,500 in educational loans, they can't borrow more money through Stafford Unsubsidized Loans. However, if they have a good credit history, they can still get Graduate PLUS Loans if they need additional funding for their education.

Tuition Fee for masters students: The total cost for the Master's program in Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine at Emperor's College is about $81,861. This amount covers everything you need for the program, including tuition, fees, and insurance.

You might also need books and materials for your classes, which can cost between $1,500 and $2,500 during the program.

If you qualify 100% of the chapter 33 benefits, then you will receive additional funding through Yellow Ribbon Program, which means an annual contribution in the chapter 33 base tuition benefit. Under this program, the VA addresses tuition and fees benefits to Stanford, after which the central financial aid office pays it to the student account. Although, the books and housing benefits are sent in a straight line to students monthly. The student might need to apply their housing benefits to the university bill in order to pay for on campus room and board.

The graduate family grants are specifically appointed to those whose children are dependent upon them, A person with dependent children can apply for this program. This fund is granted while responding to their expenses such as childcare, healthcare and rent. You may receive the amount between $1,000 to 15,000 depending on your family’s financial situations. Family with children less than the age of 10 would be preferred more.

What is the eligibility requirement to fill this program?

  • You must be a registered graduate student with a registered student status in any of the graduate program, Postdocs are not allowed to fill this program and if both the parents are graduates in that case only one application per family would be required.

  • Essential household expenses due to an emergency situation
  • Medical emergencies
  • Professional development opportunities such as travel to a clerkship interview or purchasing professional attire
  • Parent, guardian, family attendance at major campus events
  • Other sudden, unexpected financial needs
  • Participation in the life and community of the law school.

Bar exam loans: 

Loans for the bar test are designed to help graduating law students pay for bar-related costs like application and exam fees as well as living expenses while they are studying for the bar.

  • As these loans are not government loans, hence the lenders do not certify a significant amount for these loans though the maximum limit of bar loans can be around $16,000.

Joint degree financial support:
