Tuition and Financial Aid

Photo of a student in a classroomAlthough many Master of Business Taxation (MBT) students receive tuition reimbursement from their employers, full- and part-time students may qualify for financial aid through the University.

Sources of Aid

In addition to MBT scholarships and teaching assistantships, the University offers loans, grants and scholarships, education benefits, and tuition waivers based on financial need and basic eligibility criteria.

Scholarships

The MBT program offers scholarships for full-time and part-time admitted students. To qualify, you cannot be eligible for full tuition and fee reimbursement from your employer, and you must demonstrate strong academic merit.

Scholarships for 2012–2013 have been awarded and the winners notified. Applications will be accepted in mid-July 2013 for the 2013–2014 scholarships. All MBT admitted students will be notified by email when the online application form is available.

Teaching Assistantships

The MBT program does not award assistantships as part of the admissions and financial aid process, but admitted students can apply for an assistantship once they are enrolled. A limited number of teaching assistantships are available based on departmental need. The typical assistantship is a 25% appointment (195 hours of work per semester), which qualifies students for a 50% tuition waiver and eligibility for healthcare benefits at a reduced cost.

Applications will be accepted in mid-July 2013 for the 2013–2014 teaching assistantships. All MBT admitted students will be notified by email when the online application form is available.
