    Merit Scholarships

    For Part-Time Graduate Students

    You know IIT for the quality of its academic programs.  Now, we have developed a scholarship to acknowledge and reward prior academic achievement.  If you are a master's degree-seeking student applying to IIT's Armour College of Engineering, Center for Professional Development, or College of Science & Letters, you may qualify for up to a 50% tuition scholarship.

    Who qualifies?

    Any new part-time, master's degree-seeking graduate student who:
    • Is a U.S. citizen or U.S. permanent resident

    • Obtained their undergraduate degree from an accredited U.S. institution with a cumulative GPA of 3.2 or higher

    • Takes courses at IIT that count toward fulfilling degree requirements

    How much are the scholarships worth?

    Students with an undergraduate GPA of 3.5+ will be offered a 50% tuition scholarship upon admission and approval by their academic department.

    Students with an undergraduate GPA of 3.2-3.49 will be offered a 40% tuition scholarship upon admission and approval by their academic department.

    Students who receive this scholarship will continue to receive it until graduation, so long as they maintain a graduate GPA of 3.2 or higher.

    This award cannot be used in conjunction with any other IIT funding.

    How do I apply?

    To be considered for an IIT Merit Scholarship, simply apply for admission and submit the required credentials.  No additional steps are required.
