Graduate Application Fee Waivers
The Office of Graduate Admissions will waive the $50 application fee for applicants who are participants of the eligible programs listed below. Application Fees that have already been paid cannot be refunded. To a request a fee waiver please email gradschool@stockton.edu.

Please note that waivers are only for U.S. citizens or permanent residents and not available for international applicants.
