The Lundquist College of Business is committed to enrolling exceptional students dedicated to learning in our experiential-based model.
Financial assistance can come in the form of scholarships, loans, federal work-study and university fellowships. Upon application, candidates may be considered for merit-based scholarships. Scholarships are based on academic and professional qualifications and are not need-based. Financial aid comes from a variety of sources, including the Lundquist College of Business, federal government, and public and private sources.
Scholarships
Many scholarships are available to current and incoming students and to those who are already attending the University of Oregon. You should always start by exploring the plethora of scholarship and funding information available from the UO Office of Financial Aid. Scholarships are based on merit, need, or a combination of both, and do not need to be repaid after graduation. Whatever your situation, scholarships can be a vital piece in funding your education.
Accounting Scholarships
Awarded through the School of Accounting, these scholarships typically range between $1,000 and $10,000, depending upon available funding. To qualify, students must registered be enrolled in our Master of Accounting (MAcc) program for the year in which the scholarship will be awarded.
International Student Scholarships
Both need- and merit-based scholarships specifically for non-U.S. students are available through the UO Office of International Affairs.

Graduate Employee Opportunities
Several graduate employee (GE) positions are awarded to MAcc students each year. GEs receive a full tuition waiver and stipend. The positions typically either teach undergraduate accounting lab sections or provide tutoring to undergraduate students.
Another round of applications for GE positions may be launched if additional roles become available or roles are not filled after the first round of applications is closed. However, due to the uncertainty of this occurring, applicants are strongly encouraged to submit applications prior to the close of the first round. Submitting a graduate employee application will not automatically enter you into the scholarship pool.
