The average grad school student received around $27,000 in 2020-2021 from federal loans, grants, work-study programs and tax credits.
However, this amount will vary depending on your program's cost of attendance and your eligibility for additional grants.
The financial aid package will typically include a mix of grants or scholarships, loans and work-study jobs. If you're confused by what it all means, try contacting your school's financial aid office.
