Funding

[priyadarshini1230]

Hi,

 

I am an international applicant. I am applyinf for graduate studies(MS/PhD) for Fall 2014. Now do i need to separately apply for scholarship/TA/RA/Fellowships? In most of the college applications, it was written that we would be automatically considered for funding. I even visited a few college's websites and couldn't find any appropraite scholarship/aid for international applicants. I have applied to the following colleges: -

Stanford, Princeton, UIUC, UMich(Ann Arbor), Purdue, UT Austin, USC(Viterbi) 

 

Could anyone give me some insights into this?

 

Thanks

It really depends on the university and the department how applying for TA/RA positions works. In many departments, you are automatically considered for funding (fellowships and assistantships) when you apply but in others you have to apply separately. You'll need to go to the department websites and dig around to find out if you need to apply for funding separately from applying for admission.
