Financial Assistance
Florida State University makes every effort to provide financial assistance through a variety of programs to qualified graduate students, including fellowships, teaching and research assistantships, and various service assistantships.
The Academic Common Market (ACM) is a cooperative agreement among southern states which permits out-of-state applicants to enroll in specific graduate programs on an in-state tuition basis. An applicant must be admitted to the appropriate program and be certified by the ACM coordinator in his or her home state.,/p>
Applications for admission and financial assistance are separate processes, often with different deadlines. Graduate applicants should complete specific applications for each type of award they seek. Since most fellowships and assistantships are based on academic performance and test scores, applicants should complete the admission process in the Office of Admissions as early as possible.
