Incoming Ph.D. students normally receive either a fellowship or assistantship that provides a full tuition scholarship, plus a stipend for living expenses for five years, contingent upon satisfactory progress in the program. Living-expense stipends for the 2018-19 academic year are $23,000. (Compare the cost of living in South Bend to other areas in the country) Students receiving graduate assistantships are assigned to work either on faculty research projects or to assist faculty with teaching or professional peacebuilding. If students enter with advanced standing and transfer credits, the number of years of support may be less than five.
