Financial Aid

The department of Biological Sciences offers a variety of financial aid opportunities for its graduate students

      Ph.D. Stipends: All Ph.D. students receive a full tuition waiver, health insurance, and a some type of teaching/research assistantship. For 2009/2010, the base assistantship stipend is $22,000 in addition to the tuition waiver and insurance.

      There are also several fellowships available for PhD students to supplement the base stipend. In 2009/2010, these supplements will add between $4,000 and $10,000 (depending upon the particular fellowship) to the basic assistantship package. These fellowships are available to both domestic and international applicants. They are awarded based on grade point average and GRE scores. Applications must be received by February 1 to be considered for these fellowships.

      For more information regarding Graduate Teaching Assistantships or the various fellowships, please contact Dr. Paul Gollnick at gollnick@buffalo.edu.
