Financial Resources

Taxes
The Graduate School has information regarding financial aid and taxes posted on their website. They also refer to publications from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) that discuss fellowship and taxes.
 
Student Loan Resources from The Graduate School
The staff in Student Financial Services can help with the loan process. They are a great resource for students who want some guidance when applying for a loan.

Financial Aid Resources at The Graduate School
The Graduate School provides most doctoral degree-seeking students with the opportunity to receive fellowships and scholarships.

Office of Fellowships - External Funding Opportunities 
The Office of Fellowships at Northwestern University can assist students in locating national and international fellowship competitions.

Research Funding for Doctoral Students
Kellogg PhD students are provided with funding to conduct research, including a computer subsidy, travel budget to attend conferences, and opportunities to apply for additional funding, such as data, software and research assistants.

Wildcard Discounts
Many businesses in Evanston provide a discount to students, faculty, and staff who show a Wildcard. The full list of participating businesses is available online.

Job Resources for Spouses and Partners
Relocating to a new city for PhD study is a big decision, and when a spouse, partner, and/or children are coming with a student, this decision is even more important to the family. We have resources for families, which we hope will make their transition to the Evanston-Chicago area much easier.
