Financial Aid

Several avenues are open to students seeking support for their doctoral education. The MUSC Financial Aid Office offers mechanisms that are often dependent on completion of FAFSA forms. Small scholarships are generously given by the College's Alumni Association; students should check with their own professional organizations for funding opportunities. Depending on funding, federal loan forgiveness programs are sometimes available for full-time (9 credits in fall/spring, 7 credits in summer) students who teach in schools of nursing upon receipt of their degree.
