Alumni and Graduate Scholarships
Manhattanville alumni from 1999 on, whose final cumulative GPA is 3.00 or above, are eligible for scholarship aid of $1,000 per semester. Students must be registered full-time (9 or more graduate credits).
Manhattanville alumni who pursue full-time graduate study immediately after graduation are eligible for the Fast Start program which provides a 20% discount for all coursework. Fast Start students who have a 3.6 GPA are eligible for an additional $1,000 during the first semester.
Graduate scholarships will be awarded to any incoming graduate student possessing an overall grade point average of 3.2 or higher who registers for six credits or more for the first graduate semester. Students applying to and matriculated into the School of Education Graduate program may be entitled to one of the following academic scholarships for the first semester of study only:

Dual-degree (BA/MAT, BA/MPS, etc.) students are not eligible for Fast Start, Alumni or Graduate scholarships.
A discount of one third is offered for “Teachers in Transition,” those teachers who are affected by lay-offs due to financial exigency in a school or school district. This can be applied to any graduate Education credits accrued during the calendar year following unemployment. The discount is contingent on proof of unemployment due to fiscal exigency.
Scholarships and discounts may not be combined. Scholarships may not be applied if a student is receiving any other discount, is a Graduate Assistant, or is receiving tuition assistance from any employer including Manhattanville, except by prior agreement with that institution.
