Tuition
The University of Tennessee provides quality graduate education in an environment free of unnecessary expense. As of Fall 2007, tuition and fees for full-time graduate study per year is a little more than $7,000 for in-state students and $18,000 for out-of-state students. U.S. News & World Report recently ranked the University of Tennessee among the top 10 best buys in higher education. The cost of living in the Knoxville area is significantly less than in most urban or university communities.
Financial Aid
A number of financial aid opportunities are available for students in the Master of Accountancy program, including:
Departmental Scholarships
The Department of Accounting and Information Management awards scholarships on the basis of academic achievement and professional promise.
Teaching or Research Assistantships
Assistantships provide a full-tuition waiver and a monthly stipend in return for teaching or research service. Assistantships pay $5,000 plus tuition per academic year in return for approximately 10 hours per week of supervised teaching or research work. A GTA would serve as a teaching assistant or research assistant to a faculty member or serve as an assistant on special academic projects within the department.
Applying for Departmental Financial Assistance:
To apply for departmental financial assistance, simply check the appropriate boxes on the Program Application. The number of scholarship and assistantships is limited. Applications must be received before March 1 to be considered.
Part-time Employment Opportunities
Various businesses in the local area provide part-time employment to students. A bulletin board on the 6th floor of the Stokely Management Center advertises a variety of current employment opportunities.
