GraduateSchoolNut Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 What happens if you receive a scholarship as a fully-funded PhD student? Do you get it or does the school get it? I kind of want to try to go out and win more money because I like winning money. Any thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canofbeans Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 Every school has different policies on external funding. In most cases, you get to keep any types of external scholarships or they may simply take away an assistantship if you had one that was guaranteed. I would speak to my department to get their policies on the matter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phreeduh Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 You might also want to check your school of graduate studies web page because they probably set the policy for the whole school. most schools that fund will have something called an incentive policy, which means they will let you keep at least a fraction of what you win.
