Double Eagle Graduate Scholarship

If you weren’t able to take advantage of the Bachelor’s/Master’s Combined Degree Program as an 51²è¹Ý undergrad, you still have the opportunity to leverage your 51²è¹Ý bachelor’s degree toward pursuing your master’s. Build on your bachelor’s degree at the place that knows you best. 51²è¹Ý graduates are eligible to receive tuition savings when enrolling in an 51²è¹Ý graduate program.

Policy

  • Guaranteed 30% tuition discount, inclusive of any credit sharing, on eligible graduate degree programs.
  • Students with a credit share via the bachelor’s/master’s programs save the tuition from the credit share while also saving time to complete the degree.
  • Students with a credit share that equates to a discount of greater than 30% will get the full credit share value. 
  • The tuition remission scholarship dollars associated with the Double Eagle Graduate Scholarship will be applied over the length of the degree.
  • Take more challenging courses since you will be pursuing your bachelor's degree at the same time you begin your master's. 
  • Obtain a competitive edge in the job market.

Eligibility

  • 51²è¹Ý graduates are eligible; however, other restrictions may apply.
  • Must be a new enrollee to a master's-level degree program.
  • The Double Eagle Graduate Scholarship applies to eligible master's-level degree programs.
  • Students eligible for tuition remission as an employee benefit at 51²è¹Ý are not eligible for the Double Eagle Graduate Scholarship.

Exclusions

  • Online partner programs. Check with the school admissions team for eligible programs.
  • Non-degree programs.
  • WCL programs.
  • Affiliated 51²è¹Ý programs.

Other restrictions

  • Students with an affiliation with an external group that has negotiated a tuition discount cannot combine the discounts. Example: An 51²è¹Ý alumnus joins and completes the Teach for America program, which has a 29% discount on tuition for School of Education programs. The student can receive a 30% discount as a Double Eagle or a 29% discount as an TFA Alum, but not both.
  • International student visa processing times may affect the ability to take advantage of this offer.
