Graduate Stipends
All qualified applicants for the Ph.D. program are automatically
considered for graduate stipend support and tuition scholarships, and
no separate application is required. Students receiving a graduate
stipend are also provided with tuition scholarships (in other words,
students do not have to pay tuition during the program, pending satisfactory academic progress).
Occasionally (but rarely), a student may be admitted into our Ph.D.
program without departmental stipend support. M.S. Students are not
eligible for departmental stipends, although special industrial
fellowships are available for the tracks in
Pharmacometrics.
These fellowships are awarded on a competitive basis.
Most stipends and fellowships are available beginning September 1 of
each academic years. The Department does not encourage entry into the
program during the Spring semester, since many course sequences begin
in the Fall, and new stipend/fellowship openings are generally not
available to begin in the Spring.
Costs
A University at Buffalo education is an excellent value. As a public university, our tuition and fees are only a fraction of the cost of attending a private college or university of comparable quality and opportunity. While actual expenses will vary based on lifestyle, the graduate estimated costs of attendance should assist in planning your own budget. The estimated budgets represent full time attendance for the upcoming Fall and Spring academic terms and are made up of direct (tuition and fees) and indirect costs (housing, board, books and supplies, personal and miscellaneous, transportation, and origination fee).
Financial Aid
If you need additional help financing your education, U.S. citizens should apply for financial aid by filling out a FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) online. The FAFSA is an application for student aid that collects the basic information needed to determine your eligibility for all of the financial aid programs sponsored by the federal government. You may receive more detailed information by visiting UB’s Student Response Center website or by calling (716) 645-2450 or (toll free) 1-866-838-7257.
