Is funding available for applicants to the MA Plan II?
Unfortunately, no fellowship funding is available through either the department or the Graduate Division. Because the time commitment for the MA Plan II is so short (one year), our funding resources must be devoted to those in the programs with much longer time commitments and thus more costs to support. Financial aid via the FAFSA is always a possibility (consisting of loans and/or work study jobs), and some of our MA Plan II students have been known to find TA positions in other departments.
