Fellowships

Most students in the Guarini School of Graduate and Advanced Studies receive financial assistance through a program of Dartmouth fellowships, scholarships, and loans. These are supported through Dartmouth funds and through federal and private fellowships and traineeships.

Fellowships for PhD students carry stipends of approximately $40,000 for the 2023-2024 year. Scholarship awards normally cover full tuition. For some Master’s programs, there are opportunities for summer fellowships and scholarships.

Stipend supported students who participate in the Dartmouth Student Group Health Plan (DSGHP) and receive a full tuition scholarship also receive a credit on their student accounts to offset the DSGHP expense.

Insofar as is consistent with the terms of the individual awards, each student’s program of course work, teaching, and research is designed to promote most effectively his or her academic progress without reference to the source of financial support. Efforts are made to avoid large discrepancies in the size of stipends.
