Doc 2A NRST Support
Fellowship details
This funding is available for students who have entered Doc 2A status (anyone enrolled for more than 9 quarters past their advancement to candidacy for the Ph.D.) and need assistance paying the Non-Resident Supplemental Tuition. Not everyone who applies for aid will receive it. The allocations depend on the amount of submissions, the quality of submissions, your academic status, and available funds.
If you became or will become Doc 2A in the 2025-2026 AY and are fully out of funding, you may apply for one-quarter of NRST support. This funding is NOT guaranteed.
