Financial Aid Information

For residents of New York State, tuition is $310 per credit; for nonresidents and international students, tuition is $575 per credit.*

A wide variety of scholarships, awards, financial aid, and work programs is available. Information regarding application procedure, eligibility requirements, and the rights and responsibilities of recipients may be obtained from the Office of Financial Aid, 1306 James Building. To apply, students must file both the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and the CUNY Financial Aid Form. For scholarships based at the college, applicants must complete the Brooklyn College Application for Scholarships and Awards for Graduate Students. Students may also apply for scholarships online: http://websql.brooklyn.cuny.edu/scholarship/main1.htm

In addition, fellowships and graduate assistantships may be available. Details about these programs may be obtained from departmental graduate advisers.

*Tuition is set by the Board of Trustees of the City University of New York and is subject to change without notice.

Adjunct Information (For MFA/MA applicants only)

A very limited number of one-course adjunct and graduate assistant teaching positions, primarily in freshman composition (English 1 and English 2), may be available for applicants who have classroom teaching qualifications. If you wish to be considered, write directly to the department chairperson, Professor Ellen Tremper; include an up-to-date curriculum vitae and a one-page description of the way you would approach teaching such a course. Applicants without prior college teaching experience are encouraged to accept special department tutorial assignments, which may lead to actual teaching in subsequent semesters. Those teaching for us for the first time are generally required to enroll in English 778, Theories of Composition, which is offered in both the fall and spring semester. This course is a practicum in the teaching of writing that is recommended for tutors as well.

MFA/MA applicants must wait until they have been accepted before applying for these positions.
