Scholarships and support

Limited scholarships can be available. Please reach out if you'd like to learn more about opportunities.

Funding opportunities for current students

Limited funding opportunities may be available at various times throughout your program. For example, the Graduate Tuition Scholarship offers up to $6,000.00 towards tuition costs for one semester and is available to current students who have completed at least 9 semester hours of course credit. Please reach out to grad-fellowships@uiowa.edu if you'd like to learn more about potential internal or external funding opportunities.

Employer assistance

Many of our students have a portion of their tuition reimbursed by their employer. Share with your organization or supervisor the learning outcomes associated with earning your MA in Strategic Communication. The skills you gain will benefit your work and your employer's business goals. Often, students will use their work for projects and case studies, providing an even more direct benefit. It is also a winning strategy for employee development and retention.

Veteran benefit

As a military veteran or active-duty service member, you’re entitled to pay zero application fee. If you intend to use veteran’s education benefits, you can get assistance through the Office of GI Bill Services at 319-335-3895 or by emailing registrar-vets-office@uiowa.edu.
