Funding

Columbia offers multi-year, financial aid packages to admitted students including fellowships and appointments to teaching and/or research positions. Ph.D. students receive annual stipend, tuition and health fees for five years if they remain in good academic standing. Students in years 2-4 must also complete requirements as teaching or research officers. After year five, requests for additional funding are considered on a case-by case basis.

Outside Fellowships

All incoming students are encouraged to apply for outside fellowships upon admittance.  For more information about funding the Ph.D. program at Columbia, visit the GSAS website.
