Molecular Pathology Financial Support

The Molecular Pathology Graduate Program provides financial support to each Ph.D. graduate student in the form of a stipend, fees, tuition and health insurance. The stipend for Academic year 2010-2011 is $28,000. Students continue to receive financial support as long as they maintain satisfactory academic progress and have not reached the Program's support term limit, which is currently six years.

This support is funded by Federal, State, and private sources and provided in the form of research and teaching assistantships, fellowships, and NIH training grant appointments.  Because foreign students are not eligible for support from Federal training grants, resources available to support foreign students are limited.

All prospective graduate students are urged to apply for any extramural pre-doctoral fellowships for which they may be eligible. These include the National Science Foundation, Howard Hughes Medical Institute and other fellowships - in addition to those that are administered by the University.
 

2009 - 2010 Support Level:

Stipend:  $28,000.00 per year

Resident fees (paid): $3699.50 per Quarter
Nonresident tuition and fees (paid): $26086.50 per Yeaar
