There are several ways of obtaining funding, either through Rutgers or the Department of Entomology. This page provides links to information about funding. NOTICE: The deadline date for all applicants wishing to be considered for Excellence Fellowships will be January 15. For those applying for admission to the upcoming session, early applications are strongly recommended as fellowship decisions are for the most part made before many of the general application deadlines.
Financial Aid Office - This is the page for graduate student financial aid information, however, you can also find a considerable amount of information at the Other Financial Aid Office. These pages include links to jobs, different types of financial aid, forms, etc.
For general information about financial aid, go to FinAid (opens in a new window) - This exceptional page includes lots of answers about borrowing money, getting scholarships, how much you can expect to be paying back monthly, all sorts of questions and answers.
