Financial Documentation Requirements
 

The documents that you must provide vary depending on the type of funding support you have. If you have more than one source of support, each sponsor must complete the appropriate Financial Support Agreement form on your behalf.

Funding from sponsor other than applicant (Family, Friends and/or Organization Funds):

All financial sponsors must complete page 2 of the Financial Support Agreement form or provide an equivalent formal statement of sponsorship. Total sponsor support must cover at a minimum the first academic year although the sudent is expected to have sufficient financial support planned for the entire duration of your studies at IUPUI : at least two years for an associate’s degree, four years for a bachelor’s degree, two years for a meater's, two and one-half years for a master's with a thesis and five/six years for a Phd. degree.

  • Sponsor (Family or Friend): Each sponsor must provide evidence of sufficient funds for at least the first year of the applicant’s study plus verification of income as evidence of sufficient funding to cover the remaining year(s) of promised support.
  • If you will be living with family or friends in the Indianapolis area while attending IUPUI, your host should indicate the specific level of support provided towards your living expenses and the number of years the support is offered.
  • Sponsor (Organization): A promise of sponsorship can be stated on the sponsoring organization’s letterhead. The statement should be specific to the degree program at IUPUI and include the duration of sponsorship including the guaranteed dollar amount for a specified period of years or for the duration of study. Alternatively, the statement can specify the specific type of support provided (i.e. Housing).
