Parent Information

Parent information is not required to determine eligibility for federal loan assistance, however, students enrolled in a master's program within The Graduate College must submit parental data to be considered for discretionary institutional funding.

Graduate College education debt

Few students in non-nursing research programs borrow to attend The Graduate College. Students in non-nursing research programs generally receive a quarterly stipend in addition to the tuition waiver (as per terms of the acceptance letter), and the need for additional funding is minimal.

Program Notes

Stipends are generally awarded to research students (non-nursing), as noted in the letter of acceptance. If a stipend is awarded, the quarterly stipend request is initiated by each department. The Financial Affairs office of Rush University reviews the stipend request and subtracts from that total the quarterly insurance fee (if required) and the quarterly rent charge (if living in a Center Court apartment). It is returned to the department which then submits it to the Finance office of Rush University Medical Center to generate and send the check. Questions about the quarterly stipend check are to be directed to the department.

Students in master's or nursing programs are not awarded stipends.
