Financial Aid Possibilities
Note: Financial Aid options presented below differ slightly from those available to Mānoa Campus MSW students. If you are a distance education student, be sure you use the list below as your starting point.
Applicants who are in need of financial assistance should seek it simultaneously from as many different sources as possible. This would include, but should not be limited to, the various forms of financial aid available through the University of Hawai`i at Mānoa Financial Aid Services office and the University of Hawai`i at Mānoa Myron B. Thompson School of Social Work.
The best and most comprehensive forms of financial aid are often found through other public and private sources.
Although the school makes every effort to distribute information about additional resources based on notices received, students and applicants should not rely upon this as their primary source of information.
The Myron B. Thompson School of Social Work does not offer any graduate teaching positions. Paid practicum/field placements and training stipends are sometimes available, and information on these opportunities is distributed to students by the Director of Practicum and/or Project Directors as it becomes available. However, this normally occurs during the school year.
