Each student in the program may be supported for up to two years. The benefits are:

An undergraduate will be paid a stipend of $8,000 per academic year. A graduate student will be paid a stipend of $12,000 per academic year.

Additional support funds will be provided to cover the equivalent of on-campus room and board expenses: a single dorm room for undergraduate students, and graduate housing for graduate students.

Applicable tuition and fees, including any out-of-state and graduate student fees, will be paid on behalf of the scholarship recipients.

Each student will have a laptop computer and printer made available to them shortly after the beginning of the term.

Each student will be assigned to research projects investigating issues on information assurance.

Each student will have an advisory committee composed of faculty who together provide support and focus for the student’s information assurance studies.

The SFS program awards new fellowships for the Fall Semester of each year. April 24th is the application deadline, but the application process is competitive, so applicants should submit their materials on or before March 31st. Applicant presentations will be scheduled for May or early June. Students can be in the program for one to two years, but are required to graduate within that time frame and then begin a period of paid service to the federal government equal to the time for which they received scholarship support.
