Scholarships:

There are many scholarships for graduate school that go unused.  Research scholarship programs within the University of your choice, in your particular graduate study program and from Phi Mu Foundation.  Many of these scholarships will require essays.  Take the time to write the essays and remember to submit the application by the assigned deadline.

Phi Mu Foundation Scholarships:

Over 90 scholarships totaling more than $100,000 will be available to qualified Phi Mu undergraduate and graduate students each academic year. While some scholarships are restricted to field of study, chapter, state or college, many scholarships are unrestricted. Only one application is required to be considered for all scholarships. Applications may be downloaded from the Phi Mu Foundation website at www.phimufoundation.org and must be postmarked by March 1 each year.

Financial Aid (Student Loans)

As with your undergraduate degree, graduate degrees are expensive and there is a great chance that you will need to make use of financial aid.  Do your research first before making a commitment to a student loan.  Make sure that you are completely aware of your terms and obligations once you finish your degree.
