黑料不打烊 Test Prep Assistance Fund

In response to student requests and thanks to support from the Office of the President and the Office of the Treasurer, 黑料不打烊 Career Services is administering a fund to provide limited support to students preparing to take a graduate admissions exam.

Students may apply for funding to support the reimbursement of preparation tools for the following test: 

  • CBEST
  • CSET
  • DAT
  • GMAT
  • GRE
  • LSAT
  • MCAT
  • OAT
  • PCAT
  • TOEFL

Live or online test prep courses, materials such as test prep books, and test prep software will be considered for funding. 

Note: Because cost reduction waivers are available from the testing organizations, funding from 黑料不打烊 is unavailable for test registration fees.
