Financial Aid

There are four forms of financial assistance available for international students who are eligible:

Graduate Assistantships
Graduate Scholarships
Student Assistant funds
International Student Tuition Waivers (very limited)

Students applying for graduate assistantships or student assistant positions will need a United States Social Security number which can be requested from a local United States Social Security office with documentation provided by the Office of International Services (OIS).  An application for a graduate assistantship is available on this website.  Employment on campus is extremely limited and must be approved by the Office of International Services.  Hiring decisions are based on departmental needs. A limited number of international students who demonstrate financial need may also be eligible for an International Student Tuition Waiver after they have successfully completed one full semester at Montclair State University.  Contact the OIS for an application, eligibility criteria, and deadline information during your first semester of matriculation.
