They must have been admitted to the University unconditionally and have maintained a B average. Service hours may not exceed 20 hours per week in total. Assistantships are available through The Graduate School upon recommendation of the department. Prospective students who wish to be considered for an award should indicate such an interest on the admission application. If already enrolled, students should notify the Director of Graduate Study of their major department and make application by letter addressed to the department.
Stipends vary by program, level of degree, assigned responsibility, and workload.
These awards will be renewed once for master's students and twice for doctoral students, assuming satisfactory progress in the program. A small number of nonservice fellowships are available in some departments. Because stipends are not paid until after study has commenced, checks will not be received until one month after classes begin each semester. Students are reminded to make financial arrangements accordingly. For a complete listing of fellowships awarded annually by The University of North Carolina at Greensboro, please refer to The UNCG Financial Aid Directory.
