Tuition
The Program offers numerous scholarships and assistantships to reduce tuition and provide important experiences for students. Presently, all students receive a tuition reduction either through scholarships
or assistantships to $6,000 per year (from a maximum of $15,000). We expect to continue to offer similar reductions for the foreseeable future.
Financial Aid
See http://www.odu.edu/admission/financial-aid/graduate for information about the financial aid process. VCP may offer teaching or research assistantships that provide stipends and tuition reductions; information about these will typically be made at the time of the admission offer. Students may also compete for university scholarships and assistantships. Typically, these will not be confirmed prior to accepting an offer, since offers of admission must be made by April 1, and accepted or declined by April 15. Thus, an applicant may need to be prepared to accept admission while a decision about a competitive award is still pending. Those who apply for student loans should include Old Dominion University [003728] on their FAFSA lists.
