monthly stipend

Recurring financial support

A monthly stipend is a fixed sum of money paid each month, typically to cover living expenses or support someone pursuing education, training, or unpaid work.

Unlike wages, stipends aren't tied to hours worked: The internship offers a modest monthly stipend, Graduate students receive a monthly stipend while completing their dissertations.

The amount is usually predetermined and consistent.
