Financial Support

Graduate assistantships are merit-based awards that recognize outstanding achievement and provide financial support to students as they pursue their degrees. Both the college and the student benefit from the assistantship. The student receives professional experience and financial support, while the university gains a student assistant dedicated to advancing its mission.

*Students with full-time assistantships are required to work up to 20 hours per week and will receive a waiver of tuition up to 18 hours per year (6 credits per semester inclusive of classes taken during the summer). 

The waiver includes tuition only and does not include books and supplies, course fees and other student fees. Tuition waivers only cover graduate courses required for the student's approved program of study, and do not include undergraduate courses to enhance a student's preparation for his/her graduate program.
