CSUSM Funding Opportunities
- Application Fee Waivers
Application fee waivers allow students to apply to one (1) graduate program at CSUSM for free -- this waives the $70 application fee. Waivers are available from the Graduate Coordinator of your chosen (stateside) graduate program, or from the Graduate Studies Coordinator in the Office of Graduate Studies (gradstudies@csusm.edu). Limited quantities available and are not guaranteed.
Qualified students must:
- Be a current CSUSM student or CSUSM graduate (Alumni); this includes CA residents, non-residents (Out-of-state and International), and undocumented students.
- Apply for a CSUSM stateside graduate program in the semester seeking an application fee waiver.
- Meet University and Program admissions requirements.
- Show great potential for completing a Masters program.
- Show proof of attendance at an event such as: a graduate program information session or graduate school fair where you meet a CSUSM rep, Diversity Forum, Trio McNair, or any graduate studies/programs related events or activities.
