Graduate Assistant
Stipends and Fee Waivers in Grants
If you have or plan to pursue external funds and will include
graduate assistants in your project, you should be aware that there
are two components of financial support for graduate assistants and
fellows. There is the stipend (assistantship), and the tuition
remission (fee waiver).
If the funding agency permits it, you should include funds in
your grant request to support both graduate student stipends and
tuition remission. If you are going to request tuition support from
the University, you must arrange for this support from the Dean of
the Graduate School. You should contact the Graduate School for
current tuition rates
