Financial Aid and Graduate Funding
Financial Aid: Accepting your Award
During your admissions process, you should have received information about your financial aid package, which could include scholarships, grants, fellowships, and loans. Any time your current financial aid is adjusted (increased, decreased, or canceled) or new awards are added, you will receive an email update advising you to log in to One.IU to review the changes.
To view your financial aid package,
- Go to One.IU
- Click on Student Center then click on Start.
- Click on “View My Financial Aid.”
- If you are awarded Federal Direct Loans, you will need to accept, reduce, or decline them at One.IU by going to your Student Center and clicking “Accept/Decline Awards.”

Graduate Funding
As an IU Indy graduate or professional student, you have access to various funding opportunities to support your academic pursuits. The Office of Student Financial Services is your first stop for understanding financial options and planning for your future.
For those seeking grants and awards, the GradGrants Center (GGC) offers valuable assistance. Fellowships at IU Indy provide unrestricted, non-service-related stipends to support your study, training, or research. As a Graduate Fellow, you’ll focus primarily on your academic and research goals.
Remember to explore both internal and external funding sources. The Office of Student Scholarships, Office of Student Financial Services, and Office of the Vice President for International Affairs offer additional resources.
For conference presentations, consider applying for Travel Fellowships through the Fellowship Committee, which can award up to $1,000. The Graduate and Professional Student Government (GPSG) also offers the Graduate and Professional Education Grant (GPEG) for conference attendance, research, and training.
Your department or school may offer financial support through tuition remission, fellowships, or assistantships. Graduate Assistantships (GA) often include stipends and tuition waivers. Explore opportunities on IU Classifieds, GradGrants, Handshake, and Student Affairs. Some schools also offer teaching assistantships with stipends or tuition support.
For specific details on departmental funding, reach out to your graduate program directly.
