Financing Your Education
Financing your graduate degree doesn’t have to be daunting. At IPS, we’re continually developing and updating institutional and federal aid packages, and assisting students like you in locating other sources of state and private aid. Our goal is to help you at each step of the financial aid process to secure the aid you need.
Planning early and exploring all your options are keys to making your career aspirations a reality. And remember, investing in a higher degree, especially in the field of psychology, provides a guaranteed return on your investment.
Need confirmation? Check out the US Bureau of Labor Statics March 2012 report for employment growth for psychologists and mental health counselors.
The priority deadline to apply for institutional aid (assistantships) is March 1st. If funding is still available, late applicants will be considered.
