University at Buffalo Admissions 2025: Application Deadline, Eligibility & Fees

• I didn't receive any scholarship.
• Yes, a few of my batchmates received financial scholarships. Mostly they were PhD students. They received a stipend. Also, few candidates received research assistant and teaching assistant roles. They would get $800-1200$ for a month.
• On average, there were 10% of candidates who received scholarships. There were on-campus jobs in various departments, not only the computer science department. Developing websites and back-ends for quite a few departments like geology, history and economics.

• UB's School of Engineering and Applied Sciences offers scholarships for exceptional academic performance.
• Opportunities for teaching or research assistantships are available, providing stipends and tuition waivers for a few students (not most of them, only a few of them). For the application process, we can apply through the UB Scholarship Portal using our UBIT credentials. We have grader, RA, and TA, which are positions students can get into by talking to professors and showcasing their skills.

• There is a separate scholarship portal where we can apply for scholarships, but chances are very low as the fees themselves are very low. I don't receive any scholarship in my admit. I have applied for one while applying and also after the first semester.
• Generally, the option is to be a TA or RA with a professor for four hourly wages but Scholarship opportunities are not that many. As far as I know, none of the students in my batch received any scholarship, as it is very hard. From my end I don't know the AVG of how many students and how much amount.

• In this university scholarships and grants are available only to university phd students.
• Masters students do not receive aid or grants. No batchmates of mine received scholarship grants and this is because this university only funds phd students. But one particular student required financial aid therefore the university provided a scholarship for that student in the form of financial help

• Nope, No scholarships at all. I don't know a single person who got one.
• Most of the scholarships are for native people and undergrads.

• I did not receive any scholarship during my admission process.
• However, I know of one friend who received a scholarship worth $20,000.
• I’m not entirely sure how many students are awarded such scholarships, but from what I’ve observed, having substantial professional experience and a strong academic profile increases your chances of securing one.

I chose this university because of following factors: - My preferred course (MS in MIS) was offered here and was a 1-year course instead of 2 years - Fees were more affordable as compared to other universities - This is a public university and the university is reputed. I am proud to be associated with the University at Buffalo, SUNY. This university is an all-rounded package for anybody who wishes to pursue a Master's in the USA. Great course content, good professors, amazing and lively campus, in the heart of Buffalo city. The off-campus housing is decent in Buffalo, and grocery stores and restaurants are close by. This university helped me kickstart my career in the USA.
