Application is made to the Dean of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences.
Many students also receive financial support from grants and other sources during the summer months.
Graduate teaching and research assistantships are awarded directly by the Department of Psychology. Students are assigned as instructors in laboratory sections, or as discussion leaders or graders in lecture courses. The Department will try to provide a combination of fellowship and assistantship awards to successful applicants by recommending to the Graduate School that fellowship awards be made supplemental to assistantship awards. Therefore, students who wish to be considered for financial aid should indicate this on page 1 of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences admissions application form. In order for your application to be considered, the Dean of the Graduate School must receive your complete application packet by December 31.
