Funding

Make the most of the financial resources available to you as a UBC graduate student.

Graduate students are awarded financial aid on a competitive basis. The Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies (G+PS) considers all program applications for financial aid; a separate application is not required.

G+PS provides financial aid through scholarships, tuition awards, and scholarship top-ups. Funding is awarded based on academic excellence and is open to all domestic and international graduate students.

We encourage all applicants of gender, race, sexuality and social justice graduate programs to seek external (non-UBC) support sources.
