I need Financial Aid for Master Degree

<p>The cost to attend the Masters Program for Hospitality Management at Cornell University is 65,000 US Dollars. From what I learned, FAFSA does not help graduate students. And TAP (Tuition Assistance Program), are very unclear on what aid I get or any to help pay for my tuition. IMO; I dont think they are gonna give me any aid. </p>

<p>I need ideas on how to pay for this without amassing a huge debt. I am not asking for help from my parents because they have paid too much already for my undergrad. I am aiming towards paying it all myself.</p>

<p>Graduate students may take loans… [The</a> Graduate Student FAFSA](<a href=“http://www.gradloans.com/graduate-financial-aid/fafsa.php]The”>http://www.gradloans.com/graduate-financial-aid/fafsa.php)</p>

<p>Federal grant funding (like Pell) is not available for graduate school.</p>

<p>Graduate school grants, stipends, tuition waivers, and assistantships come directly from the school. There are also private organizations that may offer grants to graduate students pursuing study in a specific field.</p>

<p>You need to find out what your options are from the Hotel School itself. There may be a scholarship available, or a teaching/research assistantship (usually for second year Master’s students) that will help cover some of your costs. Does the Hotel School still have summer continuing ed. programs? Years ago a friend of mine was some kind of program assistant the summer after her first year of the Master’s program, and again the summer right after graduation.</p>
