International Student Financial Aid and Employment
SIT welcomes students from a wide range of economic backgrounds. Though funds are limited, international applicants are encouraged to apply for financial aid administrated by SIT. Financial aid is available to international students in the form of grants, work-study opportunities, and scholarships. In recent years, more than 70 percent of all international students received financial aid through SIT.
Financial aid applications are sent to all applicants for admission. We highly recommend that students complete the forms by March 1. A financial aid decision can be made only after an applicant has been accepted for admission.
How to Apply for Financial Aid
International students are eligible to apply for all SIT grants and scholarships. In addition, SIT offers limited work opportunities on campus. Students are encouraged to research and apply for all other aid sources for which they qualify.
To apply for SIT Financial Aid please complete, sign, and return the Application for International Student Financial Aid.
2008-2009 Instructions and Application for International Student Financial Aid
If your computer system does not support Adobe Acrobat Reader we will mail the Application for International Student Financial Aid to all students that submit an application for admission.
SIT Employment for International Students
The SIT Work Opportunity Program supports the part-time employment of international students who need the income to help pay for the cost of their education. A variety of campus employment opportunities are available each year.
Students with a work opportunity position generally work between 8 and 10 hours each week. The rate of pay for the 2003-2004 academic year is $7.50 per hour. Approximately 60% of students have work positions on campus.
Students can also earn the equivalent of room and board expenses by applying to be a Resident Advisor in the multicultural environment of the SIT dormitories. Resident Advisor applications are sent to students after they have been accepted. Selection is made by the housing office.
