Have you decided to get a graduate degree in the social or behavioral sciences? Congratulations. You have made a wise decision. According to the U.S. Bureau of the Census, the average salary for a college graduate is around $40,000. But, this figure rises to more than $50,000 for master’s degree recipients and to $75,000 or more for those with doctoral or professional degrees. Getting a graduate education, however, is expensive. It can cost more than $20,000 to complete a master’s degree and $100,000 or more to finish some doctoral or professional degrees. That’s more than most students can afford to pay on their own. Fortunately, there are millions of dollars available to support graduate study, training, research, and creative activities (writing, projects, etc.)
