Prioritize Your Application

The first UMSI application deadline is in less than a week (on January 15th) and I encourage you to submit your application by then. If you’ve followed the steps in the post Tips for a Successful Application, then you should have a strong application all set.


Submitting your application by the priority deadline grants you first consideration for the following scholarships:



  1. UMSI merit scholarships which range from partial to full tuition amounts, with the possibility of additional benefits such as stipends. These scholarships are awarded regardless of the applicant’s residency status for the duration of four semesters of full-time work.
    1. And also the UMSI diversity scholarships, which are quite similar.
  1. Joyce Bonk Assistantship which provides full-tuition support, health-care, and a stipend. The assistantship requires a 20-hour/week work commitment in the Clements Library. This work entails digitization of collection materials. See the full description here.
  2. Professional Practice Fellows Program which provides full-tuition support, health-care, a laptop, and a travel stipend. The program includes a paid 15-20-hour/week work commitment with an industry partner.


All you need to do to be considered for these sweet, sweet scholarships is submit your application in by January 15th. That’s it! Do it!


And no, these scholarships are not too good to be true.

Funding note: Applications received after the January 15 priority deadline date will still be considered for scholarships. However, to receive first consideration for these funds, you must apply by the early deadline.

Keep an eye out for next week’s blog post, which will discuss more ways to fund your graduate degree.
