Financial Assistance

Financial support for students in good academic standing in the department include tuition and a monthly stipend paid on a 9-month academic year and a 3-month summer basis. Students who teach in the Rice University summer program sponsored by the School of Continuing Studies will receive additional support.

Outside Forms of Financial Support
