In addition to University-wide financial aid resources provided by the Office of Student Financial Services, the School of Education and Human Development has various fellowship, scholarship, and award opportunities available to students across all degree levels.
This year, the school is adding a new and prestigious scholarship award to its portfolio: the Dean's Scholarship Program. These awards are designed primarily for master’s students and are applied directly to the cost of tuition. All applicants will be considered for merit aid, with no separate application to complete. Award offers will be made during the admission process. Funding is competitive and limited, and not all students will receive awards. You are encouraged to submit your admission application by the early notification deadline to maximize your eligibility.
The University of Virginia School of Education and Human Development offers various financial awards to master’s and doctoral students, recognizing the broad range of talents our students represent. Some awards are offered during the admission process and others are granted directly by our academic departments to students after matriculation.

A typical funding package includes funding for nine months in a combination of wages and stipends, tuition and all mandatory fees, and funds to cover student health insurance costs. The University also offers a limited number of competitive fellowships for which students enrolled in Ph.D. programs may apply.
