Additional Financial Options

In addition to scholarships, financing options typically include personal resources, educational loans and company tuition reimbursement. Since the MSEM, MSTML, and MSIM are professional master's programs, Tufts University's Gordon Institute does not offer any research or teaching assistantships to students.

Student Loans

Students who will finance all or part of the tuition costs can obtain information on student loan programs through the Tufts University Office of Financial Aid website, the Dowling Student Services Center at Tufts University at 617-627-2000 or by email at studentservices@aes.tufts.edu.

Corporate Reimbursement

Many students are eligible to have their tuition covered by their company's tuition reimbursement programs. We encourage students to reach out to their Human Resources department and manager to understand if there is an available benefit, what the requirements are, any caps for the amount reimbursed, and the deadlines for submitting paperwork. To view payment plans, loans, and third-party billing options that may be available in conjunction with tuition reimbursement, visit Tufts University's Student Financial Services website. 

Student Employment

Various part-time jobs are available at Tufts University under regular student employment budgets and, for those who qualify, the Federal Work-Study (FWS) Program. Students with jobs typically work between 8-12 hours a week both on and off campus. International students with an F-1 visa are eligible to work up to 20 hours a week on campus during the semester and up to 40 hours a week during summer break.. Students may apply for jobs once they have matriculated.
