All loans must be repaid, but some loans allow you to defer payment while you are enrolled in school. GW's Office of Student Financial Assistance has complete information on such sources of aid. Contact the Career Center and your academic department for more information on cooperative education opportunities. In return, a partial tuition award and furnished room are provided for the academic year. Full-time students in graduate degree programs may apply.
Many graduate students obtain employment to help fund their studies.
The Career Center posts lists of part-time, summer, and internship positions for which graduate students may apply. You should also visit individual academic departments, which may post part-time job openings and internship opportunities. The Federal Work-Study Program provides jobs for undergraduate and graduate students with financial need, allowing them to earn money to help pay education expenses. The program encourages community service work and work related to your course of study. For more information and an application, view our page on the Office of Student Financial Assistance .
