We encourage you to investigate all available financial aid options.
McIntire provides scholarships to incoming students who show exceptional academic promise, come from a unique background, offer a different perspective, have shown leadership or potential for leadership despite a disadvantage, or demonstrate financial need. Typically one-fourth of the class receives a scholarship, and awards range from $2,500 to $10,000.
If you would like to be considered for a departmental scholarship, please apply through your program application. Priority will be given to those who apply by the Feb. 1 deadline; requests for scholarship received after the deadline will be considered if funding remains available.
Many students apply to work as graduate interns at McIntire or across the University. Positions are posted through Handshake, the UVA job database, over the summer and are paid on average $13 an hour. Students typically work anywhere from 5 to 15 hours per week. Opportunities may include working with a professor (research, tutoring, or assisting with a class) or department.
