Also from Grad Cafe:
Some international information:
All German MFA equivalent programs are tuition free and students can apply for government sponsored DAAD studentships that cover cost of living (something like 750 euro per month) regardless of wether the student is foreign or local. Quite a few German schools have excellent reputations.
RMIT (Melbourne) offers stipend and tuition to Australasian MFA students, and have a number of studentships for internationals.
TNUA (Taipei) has a joint studentship program with the government for international students which covers fees and stipend. Last I heard they were also running a joint program with Aalto (Helsinki), though not sure if the studentship would cover the exchange semesters in Finland.
CAFA (Beijing) I believe has a similar govt. scholarship arrangement.
