Financial Aid for Graduate Students

A key question, whether you’re moving straight from your undergraduate degree into a graduate program or coming back for your master’s after some time away, is, “How am I going to pay for it?” Mars Hill University Adult and Graduate Studies programs maintain a competitive tuition for grad programs.  We do not charge extra fees. We are committed to remaining accessible to our students.

We encourage you to explore loan options and outside scholarships for graduate students to help fund your education. Eligible students may research regional and local funding opportunities offered by external organizations. Please contact the financial aid office if you have questions or need assistance.
