FELLOWSHIPS AND TUITION SCHOLARSHIPS
The Graduate Program offers financial assistance on a competitive basis annually and all rewards are renewable. The major criteria for awarding fellowships and other financial aid are academic excellence and scholarly promise, but need is also taken into consideration. Both MA and PhD candidates are eligible. Awards of financial assistance involve working as a teaching assistant or research assistant. Teaching assistants receive invaluable training for future academic positions as well as experience in giving museum gallery tours.
Cleveland Museum of Art/Case Western Reserve University Fellowships provide up to full tuition and an annual stipend of up to $9000. These awards require 10 hours per week of museum service, usually in a curatorial department. The fellowships include two two-year Cleveland Museum of Art Fellowships ($9,000/yr. plus full tuition) and up to fifteen Teaching and Research Assistantships ($7,000 plus full tuition).
Three Cleveland Foundation Gallery internships of $1,500/semester are also available.
Application deadline: February 15, 2010.
OTHER SOURCES OF FUNDING
