Applying for Financial Aid
The GTU Financial Aid Office administers financial aid for students at all of the seminaries and graduate schools of the Graduate Theological Union with the exception of SFTS. While the financial aid application process is similar for all students, regardless of their seminary or school, each institution has its own deadlines and its own aid programs. GTU Common M.A. students follow the application requirements for their school of affiliation. The information below describes the general application process for applying for financial aid as well as the priority deadlines for each school. Financial aid applications for new students are reviewed only after the Financial Aid Office has been notified that a student has been admitted.
For information regarding types of financial aid, refer to Financial Aid Programs and Eligibility.
If you have questions about the information on this site, you are welcome to contact us by phone or email. When you are on campus, please visit the Financial Aid Office, located in the GTU “Bookstore” building at 2465 Le Conte Avenue, Berkeley, CA.
