Gallaudet Grant-in-Aid

The University makes available a limited number of grant-in-aid awards to degree-seeking undergraduate and graduate students who are U.S. citizens or permanent residents. These grants are used for tuition, mandatory fees, and campus-based living expenses (room and board). Grant-in-aid may be replaced with a need-based endowed or donor scholarship.

Grant-in-aid awards will be prorated based on the number of credit hours the student is enrolled in. To receive grant-in-aid, students must be in good standing and demonstrate financial need. The grant is supplemental to the student's personal funds, support provided by parents, and possible financial aid from state agencies. Included in the student's resources are any federal grants, Federal Work Study, or Federal Direct Loans. Remaining funds from the academic year are used to provide summer session grants for students enrolled during either semester of the preceding academic year. Summer applications are available during the spring semester.

Any part of such a grant that cannot be used to cover charges will be canceled. Grant-in-aid cannot be released to students as refunds.
