Graduate Finacial Support

University Fellowships and Awards

The Department of Art History has the opportunity to apply for University Graduate Fellowships for incoming students with outstanding scholastic records. This fellowship provides a stipend of at least $14,800 plus a full tuition grant-in-aid for a student’s first academic year. This prestigious award allows students to devote full time to their first year of studies, without having work obligations. After the one-year fellowship, the graduate student (if making satisfactory progress) is guaranteed a half-time graduate assistantship in the department, plus $1,000 from the University Graduate Fellowship, for the second academic year. All applicants who have submitted complete applications by January 15 will be considered for nomination by the department for a University Graduate Fellowship. The department typically receives one to two University Graduate Fellowships per year.

As a part of the University's comprehensive plan to increase diversity, the University has Bunton-Waller Graduate Awards in the forms of fellowships, fellowship supplements, and assistantships. The department may submit eligible candidates who have been admitted to the program for consideration for these awards

The Department of Art History also has the opportunity to apply for Graham Endowed Fellowships, and Block Grants, which provide additional financial support for incoming students who have already been awarded assistantships. The department chooses which incoming graduate students to nominate for these awards.
