Financial Support
Admitted students are guaranteed a package of financial
funding which provides full support (covering tuition
and fees), stipends for each fall and winter semester,
comprehensive health insurance, and limited financial
assistance for approved summer projects.
Every student receives some Fellowship support and
teaches as a GSI (Graduate Student Instructor) for at
least two semesters in the course of their time in the
Program. All IPCAA students receive full Fellowship
support throughout their first year in the Program.
Subject to satisfactory progress through the Program
(as assessed by the faculty), students at present receive
support for six years or until the completion of their
dissertation — whichever comes first.
Funding details vary greatly according to individual
circumstances — hence the brevity of these general
remarks. But here are two examples of how the overall
pattern of funding might look in actual cases:
