Tuition and Fees

Tuition and fees for full-time and part-time URI graduate students are listed at the Enrollment Services site. Residents of Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Vermont qualify for regional rates under the New England Board of Higher Education tuition break program.

GSLIS courses taught in conjunction with Worcester State University and the University of New Hampshire are administered through the Special Programs Office of URI's Feinstein College of Continuing Education. In lieu of tuition, a flat fee is charged for these courses; see our Course Schedules for the current amount.

Financial Aid

Most URI financial aid is administered through the Financial Aid Office, which is located in Green Hall, on the Kingston campus.

Students are also encouraged to apply for scholarships from other sources.

  • Application deadlines for GSLIS Scholarships are October 15 (for scholarships given in the spring term) and February 15 (for scholarships given in the summer or fall term).
  • Many GSLIS students find employment in area libraries to help finance their education. Some have qualified for financial assistance through their state libraries, their state library associations, the American Library Association or other organizations.
  • Opportunities for assistantships, internships, and jobs are posted to the student listserv, GSLISSTU, as received.
  • Students should also consult with the University Student Financial Aid Office (401-874- 2314).
