Financial Aid

Financial aid is available through the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences in the form of tuition scholarships. Our MA students usually receive a high percentage of tuition remission which helps to ease the burden of pursuing a graduate degree.  Teaching assistantships may also available.

Students in East Asian Studies at Washington University benefit from a surprisingly large and diverse Asian community in the St. Louis metropolitan area, not to mention a wealth of cultural activities and institutions that attract international attention and acclaim--such as film festivals, concerts, art exhibits, and annual festivals. Our graduates have succeeded in establishing themselves in a wide variety of East Asia-related careers.
