As a graduate assistant, you are entitled to a tuition award which covers the registration fee, student government fee, and health service fee. For full-time graduate assistants appointed to Fall and Winter terms, a total of eighteen (18) hours of tuition will be covered by tuition scholarship (~9 hours/term). Three-quarter appointments for Fall and Winter terms will receive a total of fourteen (14) hours of tuition coverage. Half-time appointments will receive nine (9) hours of tuition coverage for the year.

Tuition Scholarship/Financial Aid Procedure:
Students appointed as graduate assistants will have their tuition automatically paid for, according to the number of tuition hours to which the student is entitled, depending upon the terms of G.A. appointment. For example, if the G.A. is appointed for Fall term, full-time, the graduate deans office staff will automatically credit the student account for up to nine (9) hours of tuition. If the student does a drop/add once the semester is underway, the graduate dean's office must be notified so that adjustments can be made.
