If so, the program executive committee will determine what additional work is necessary during the first year to fill in holes in the student's background. The deadline for receipt of application material is January 1st of each year. However, applications completed between January 1 and March 31 may also be considered. Fellowships with tuition support are usually not available for first year international students, and such students should be prepared to cover their first year costs with an outside fellowship or personal funds. International students requiring first year support should apply to PIBS, rather than directly to the Neuroscience Program.
Costs range widely.
Students are supported a variety of mechanisms. In addition, the Program makes funds available for each first and second year student to attend one scientific meeting each year.
