Financial Assistance

*** The MMIAM is GI Bill approved ***

The program offers a limited number of tuition scholarships to new students who have been reviewed by the admissions committee, who demonstrate the highest level of achievement in their academic and artistic careers and who express a financial need. Therefore, the better your application file (transcripts, experience, motivation, essays, letters of recommendation, test results, etc.) and the more serious your financial need, the greater the chance of receiving a scholarship and the higher the scholarship. These awards are contingent upon formal admission to the universities.

Graduate applicants who wish to apply for tuition scholarships must fill-out Essay #4.

Note that one US $25,000 scholarship will be awarded to a meritorious applicant from Latin America or other developing countries.

No. Room and board are not included, nor are travel costs from your city to Dallas and from Milan to your city. We can direct you to off-campus furnished housing and student residency options. We will help to identify accommodations that keep your costs as low as possible.

This is entirely your decision. It will be possible to rent an affordable apartment so that your spouse can be with you. But remember, you are responsible for housing costs.
