Admission and financial support decisions are made separately.
Some students are admitted to the program without financial support from the department.
Students with strong credentials frequently qualify for graduate assistantships.
Research assistantships/fellowships are awarded on a competitive basis. Assistantships
involve quarter or half-time employment in a research or
teaching activity that provides useful experience to the
student. Stipends for 2007-08 are $17,904 and $20,280 respectively,
for one-half time M.S. and Ph.D. assistants employed on
twelve-month contracts. All assistantships carry a tuition
waiver. Over the last several years, departmental and extramural
grants have been able to support about one-half of the graduate
student body.
