The Gordon Institute awards tuition scholarships to both U.S. citizens/permanent residents and non-U.S. citizens. Recipients will be notified of the amount of their award at the time of acceptance. These scholarships are percentage-per-credit based awards that will be applied throughout the duration of the student's enrollment in their Gordon Institute graduate program. 

Scholarships are awarded on the basis of merit. Merit is assessed through the application for admission. To be considered for a tuition scholarship, applicants must fill out the financial aid section of the online application. We strongly encourage applicants who want to be considered for a Gordon Institute scholarship to apply by the priority deadline.

Tufts School of Engineering offers additional graduate scholarships.

In addition to scholarships, financing options typically include personal resources, educational loans and company tuition reimbursement. Since the Gordon Institute offers professional graduate programs, neither research or teaching assistantships are available to students.

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. Tufts Financial Services provides additional Billing Information related to payment plans, loans, and third-party billing options that may be available in conjunction with corporate tuition reimbursement.
