Graduate assistantships are an important form of financial support for degree-seeking graduate students and are offered by each of the graduate programs. Assistantships are granted in the form of tuition waiver and can vary from a one credit waiver to nine (9) credits or the maximum tuition charge per semester, whichever is applicable. Awards are made on a semester basis during the academic year (August – May). Nominations are made by the faculty and program director of each graduate program and are then forwarded to the Director of the Office of Graduate Studies for final approval. Students who are approved for an assistantship will receive an offer-of-appointment letter from the Director.
Students must submit a Graduate Assistantship Application and letter of interest to their program director no later than October 31 for Spring semesters and March 31 for Fall semesters.
New, incoming graduate students are now eligible for scholarships for the fall and spring semesters. This is a one-semester award that will apply to your first semester. If you wish to continue with scholarships past your first semester, you will be able to apply for a Foundation Scholarship. This scholarship will be in the amount of $2,500 and applied to your bill after you register for courses.
Eligible students will be nominated for these scholarships by the application review committee. Nominations will be reviewed twice for the fall semester (April 1 and July 1) and once for the spring semester (December 1).
