Unconditional admission requires a minimum overall undergraduate GPA of 2.85 on a four-point scale, a GPA of at least 3.0 in the last half of all undergraduate work, or a GPA of at least 3.0 for no less than 12 semester credits of graduate study at an accredited graduate school. Students admitted on probation or placed on probation while at UW-L are not eligible for graduate assistantships. Graduate assistantships involve 14 or 20 hours of weekly professional responsibilities. Remuneration for graduate assistantships is income and is taxable as such.
Graduate assistants receive a monthly paycheck.
Health fringe benefits are also part of the assistantship award. Incidental and other fees must be paid by the graduate assistant. Minnesota residents must make appropriate application under the reciprocity agreement. You may submit the HPER Graduate Assistantship Application as soon as your Application for Graduate Admission is submitted. These are two separate applications.
