Kellogg Doctoral Program

Financial Aid and Expenses
Tuition for the 2009-2010 academic year is $50,784. Increases should be anticipated in subsequent years. To help determine your need for financial aid, please consult the Estimated Expenses Worksheet (PDF 47 KB / 1 page), provided by the Graduate School.

Financial aid is available to admitted students, including international students, for five years and includes tuition scholarships, fellowship stipends, teaching and research assistantships, and Northwestern student health insurance coverage. Opportunities to teach may also be made available by the department.

Doctoral students who receive financial assistance during the first year of study and achieve satisfactory progress and meet program-specific requirements may expect to receive financial aid awards in years two, three, four, and five. Beginning in year two, there will be an expectation for students to work a minimum of 10 hours a week with faculty for professional development purposes. This type of work will include teaching and research assistance.

Additionally, the Kellogg School of Management will purchase a laptop computer for all admitted doctoral students entering in the fall of 2010. This is a one-time computer purchase. Laptops purchased are the property of the students who are in good standing, and technical support will be provided by Kellogg Information Systems (KIS), Kellogg's IT group. A student who leaves or fails the program will need to return his or her laptop.

To qualify for financial aid, the application and supporting documents should be received by December 31, the application deadline. Applicants are automatically considered for financial aid when they submit the on line application form to the Kellogg School of Management. Therefore, applicants do not need to request financial aid within the application or submit any other forms. If admission is recommended, provisions for financial aid will be included with the admission offer. Please refer to Application Requirements and Checklist when submitting documents to the Kellogg School.
