CCS Scholarships and Grants

Merit and need-based scholarships and grants are awards that do not require repayment.

CCS Graduate Scholarships

By completing your application to CCS, you are automatically considered for a graduate scholarship. We base scholarship awards on your portfolio, academic record, interview and potential for success in your Graduate Studies program.
Admitted applicants who have been awarded a CCS Graduate Studies Scholarship will receive notification of the scholarship in their acceptance letter.

Enrolled students must maintain a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.0 in order to continue receiving their scholarship funding.

Note: If you are receiving tuition assistance from your employer or country, you are not eligible for these scholarships.

International Student Grant

New and returning International students are awarded $1,500 in the first semester of enrollment each academic year. This award is in addition to the CCS Graduate Scholarship.

CCS Alumni Scholarship

All CCS alumni who have earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree will automatically receive a $5,000 scholarship as part of the admissions process.

Dean’s Alumni Award for Graduate Studies

CCS alumni who apply and are admitted to either the Design for Sustainability or Interdisciplinary Design & Media programs may be eligible for a limited number of $5,000 scholarships through the Dean’s Alumni Award for Graduate Studies.
