Graduate Student Scholarship Information

Scholarships:

Scholarships are awards that you do not have to repay.

*For information on the availability of scholarships, grants, stipends, assistantships, fellowships, work study and community service, contact the academic department you plan to attend. The department will also be able to discuss the requirements of these programs.

We also recommend that you contact Carnegie Mellon University's Fellowship Resource Advising Center (FRAC) for additional assistance with scholarship resources.

Fellowship Resource Advising Center (FRAC)

The FRAC (Fellowship Resource Advising Center) goal is to make your scholarship search as simple and as successful as possible. FRAC supports you in every step, from recommendations to applications, whether you're interested in the prestigious Rhodes or a lesser-known local scholarship. Your major or class level is no obstacle - from first-year to postdoctoral, from biomedical engineering to drama, there are scholarship opportunities available to you. All you need is ambition, desire, and a commitment to learn a little about your options - and a lot about yourself.

Carnegie Mellon realizes that extenuating circumstances may contribute to a student's inability to achieve satisfactory academic progress, and thus we encourage students to appeal after receipt of progress failure notification. Appeal examples include: extended illness, changes in major, difficult transition to first-year in college (academically and socially), recent diagnosis of learning disability or a recent death of a close family member.
