Scholarships and Financial Aid

The MS Financial Engineering Program is a non-thesis, Professional Graduate Program which does not offer funding or assistantships to admitted students.  It is not a research-based program and therefore, tuition-waivering assistantship opportunities are not available.

MSFE Academic Excellence Award Scholarship for enrolled students:
