"When I tell people about my M.A. in International Service, many are excited that a program in nonprofit management and service-learning actually exists. I value every moment I spent in Kingston and London. Education abroad hits you from every angle. You can't not learn!"
- Karol, now working for the Make-A-Wish Foundation headquarters

Financial Aid and Scholarships

Graduate Program

Financial Aid

For the M.A. in International Service program, U.S. students are entitled to two different low-interest federal loans: the Stafford loan (maximum of $18,500), and the Grad PLUS Loan (to cover the maximum remaining balance of the program cost, travel, and other expenses). In addition, a low-cost loan (International Student Loan Program, or ISLP) for U.S. students is available for up to $20,000 (student only) or $40,000 (with co-signer).

Once you are accepted into the program, IPSL will guide you through the financial aid process.

Note: When applying for federal aid, Roehampton University has a U.S. Department of Education Code 021019; for FAFSA forms, it is often listed as G21019.
