Financial Aid |
The Mandel School makes the difficult decision about where to earn a master's degree just a little
bit easier by offering generous financial aid. In 2008, students in our School's master's
program received over $4.45 million in scholarships and stipends. These scholarships are
generously supported by alumni and friends. We work closely with you on a one-to-one basis to
make sure that those who want to receive an education at one of the top-ranked schools can afford
to do so.
Scholarships and Fellowships
As soon as you are admitted,
you will be considered for all scholarships and loans for which you are eligible.You do not need to
submit a separate application to be considered for scholarships and fellowships at the Mandel
School. Merit scholarships are awarded to students who have demonstrated academic excellence
as well as financial need. Need-based scholarships are awarded based on information provided
in your FAFSA and Case Financial Aid Application. Completion of the FAFSA is required for both need
and merit based awards.
We are proud that the award level received in the first year will be continued in the
student's second year, provided the student remains in good academic standing. In addition,
students are eligible to be nominated for 2nd year scholarships that range from $1,000 to full
tuition.
Full-time Students100% of Mandel's full-time students receive a field stipend and 96%
receive scholarships in addition to the stipend. This level of financial support enables the
Mandel School to award full-time students a combined scholarship and stipend that covers
approximately half the cost of tuition.
Intensive Weekend StudentsIntensive Weekend students are also eligible for financial
support. The level of support depends on whether or not students also get support from their
agencies. Students finishing in a summer semester cannot receive financial aid due to federal
regulations regarding semester length. Students are encouraged to use all or part of their
refunds from the previous semesters to pay for that last term.
International StudentsInternational students in the full-time program are eligible for
scholarships and stipends and if admitted must work closely with the International Students Office
to obtain the necessary documents to study in the United States. For additional information :

Field Stipends
Every full-time master's student is guaranteed a field stipend, providing not only a
rewarding experience in practice, but an experience that is practical in its rewards.
Stipends mean students are on-the-job from the start, applying knowledge they learn one week
to the work they are doing the next. By guaranteeing these stipends, we ensure that the
agencies at which we place our students assign substantive work, giving them critical experience
that will make them better practitioners and more attentive job candidates.
