- What are the Financial Aid options? Students in MAT program are eligible for graduate student aid. They should apply by March 1. They may be eligible, if a Colorado resident and in certain programs, for a state Graduate Grant. We award those to high need, on-time grad students within certain majors. They must be attending full time (9 hours) to receive. In addition, grad students are eligible for work-study, Perkins Loan if on-time applicants. Stafford Loans are available for up to $20,500 depending on the cost of attendance, i.e., a CO resident budget is less than that, so they would not qualify for the full $20,500. They should also complete the scholarship app by March 1 for Grad School scholarship consideration.
