Benefits

• Departmental Assistantships
  • Graduate students, who receive departmental assistantships, will only receive a stipend and graduate tuition waiver (in and out of state) from the college's budget allocation from College of Graduate Studies. 
  • At no time can a tuition waiver cover undergraduate, law, executive MBA or audit courses. 
• Grant Funded Assistantships
  • Graduate students who receive grant funded assistantships, along with a tuition waiver (in and out of state) from the college's budget allocation from College of Graduate Studies, will receive a stipend from the grant and in some instances certain fees may be waived. 
  • If a grant is covering any fees, these need to be indicated on the GAPA, on the far right-hand side, to ensure Grants Accounting will waive these fees. 
  • It is the department's responsibility to inform students being paid on a grant, what the grant will cover. 
• Leaves 
  • Students on assistantships do not accrue sick or vacation time.
