Funding and Scholarships
We are committed to diversity and inclusion in teacher education and the teaching profession and don't want cost to be a barrier to entry. That's why Brown has significantly expanded its commitment to merit and need-based aid to MAT students. Students with demonstrated need are eligible for scholarships up to full tuition, living stipends, health fees, and insurance. We make need-blind admissions decisions and then award scholarships to admitted students based on merit and financial need.
All applicants are automatically considered for merit scholarships when applying to Brown’s Master of Arts in Teaching program. No additional steps are required. Awards typically cover 15–50% of total tuition, based on the strength of the application.
To be considered for the full range of aid, we encourage applicants to submit the FAFSA or CSS Profile as noted below before the application deadline.

Cost of Attendance
We understand that all applicants must make an informed decision before selecting an academic institution for study. Our graduates benefit from strong placement rates—93% within 3 months of graduation. Providence's modest cost of living makes it an attractive option for balancing the cost of education.
Graduate tuition is billed on a per-class basis, as detailed in the Graduate Tuition and Fee Schedule on Brown University's Student Financial Services website.
8 credits are required for MAT degree completion.
The College Scholarship Service (CSS) Profile is another tool we use to determine financial need. You can also include information about your family’s special financial circumstances.
