Step 1A - Create A Budget

The Student Financial Services team is here to help you navigate through payment options, questions about financial aid and tuition. Before you start looking into our payment options, we recommend creating a budget and seeing which payment option best fits your needs.

Step 1B - Estimated Costs

Estimated costs for incoming & returning students for typical MAT credit load by program and term.

Step 2 - Need-Based Aid

Institutional aid at Relay may include scholarships awarded based on need and can vary in amounts each academic year. These annual awards are released evenly at the start of the summer, the fall, and the spring terms. You must be enrolled at least half-time to receive need-based aid. If you are awarded an external scholarship, education award, or school-based sponsorship, SFS will reprioritize your application in order to best support students with the most need.

Step 3 - Federal Aid

If you are enrolled in a degree-seeking or advanced certificate program, and enrolled at least half-time, you may be eligible for federal financial aid. There are two types of financial aid available to Relay graduate students Direct Unsubsidized Loans and TEACH Grants.
