The Warren Alpert Medical School Office of Financial Aid can assist students who may not have the financial resources to meet the full cost of completing their Master’s Program. We can help students navigate through the process of financing their education federal and private loans.
Students may be able to finance all of their program costs by borrowing through Federal and Private Loans.
The first step to securing the Federal Direct Unsubsidized loan. You may do this by completing the FAFSA.
Be sure to use The Warren Alpert Medical School's code for the FAFSA which is E00059.

Private loans are another means of funding your Master of Medical Sciences program. You can use the loan comparison tool, FastChoice , available on our website to view a list of private lenders and state loan authorities offering private credit-based educational loans to graduate and certificate students.
The cost of attendance for the Masters Programs that are administered by the Warren Alpert Medical School Office of Financial Aid can be found on our Cost of Attendance and Budgeting webpage. The updated cost of attendance for all Master’s Programs are available in early April.
The cost of attendance will provide an example and estimate of the expenses you will incur while enrolled in your program. This includes the tuition and fees charged by Brown University, programmatic fees and estimated living expenses for the months in which you are enrolled in coursework.
We encourage students to prepare a budget to manage educational and living expenses and live as frugally as possible during this time to minimize borrowing.
