A graduate assistant does not accrue annual leave. Each graduate assistant is required to register for 12 credit hours each semester and 6 credit hours for each 6-week summer term. A graduate assistant is expected to remain free from other competing employment. The assistantship stipends follow University guidelines and are subject to change each year. Students must maintain a B average or better and perform assigned duties in a satisfactory manner to retain a graduate assistantship.
Performance is reviewed each semester.
A limited number of scholarships are available on the basis of need and academic achievement. Contact the Departmental Graduate Coordinator for more information.
