Financing Your Degree

  • U.S. federal student aid: Students in the MS-DS on campus can apply for graduate and professional student financial aid and other funding opportunities (e.g., tuition reimbursement from your employer). 
  • Scholarships: CU Boulder does not currently offer scholarships for this program. However, you can search for private scholarships and improve your chances of success with our tips to apply
  • Teaching Assistantships (TA) or Research Assistantships (RA): Because the MS-DS is a professional program, on-campus students are not eligible for teaching or research assistantships, but are eligible for hourly work.
