The Finance Department has very little resources for giving scholarships. However, admitted students may apply for scholarships in Scholarship Universe, our scholarship-matching tool. Scholarship Universe connects Wildcats to millions of dollars in internal and external scholarships.

Many students choose to take out a loan to pay for all or part of the costs associated with attending the Master's in Finance program.

Loan programs available to MSF students include:

• Federally sponsored (Stafford) loans – for U.S. citizens only
• Alternative private loans – for U.S. and international students

All offer competitive interest loans repayable upon completion of your degree.

Eligibility for need-based grants, loans and scholarships is determined by completing a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) form available on line . Many funds are limited, so those students who have their FAFSA completed by March 1 each academic year receive priority processing.

Applicants must have been admitted to the MMF program before The University of Arizona Office of Student Financial Aid (OSFA) will make financial aid awards. Graduate students must be enrolled at least halftime in order to receive federal loans.

Competitive, merit-based scholarships are available for early applicants. Awards are available based on date of application and strength of incoming metrics such as GPA, work experience, relevance and professionalism of application materials such as the personal statement and resume.
