Tuition Waiver

In addition to the compensation for the professional duties or functions performed, graduate assistantships offer a waiver of in-state tuition, commensurate with the award level, as follows:

  • Full Graduate Assistantship (100 percent) 100 percent in-state tuition waiver or 9 credit hours/semester
  • Partial Assistantship (75 percent) 75 percent in-state tuition waiver or 7 credit hours/semester
  • Partial Graduate Assistantship (50 percent) 50 percent in-state tuition waiver or 4.5 credit hours/semester

In order to receive the tuition waiver specified for the award level, graduate assistants are required to perform the specified number of hours of work or professional duties. Graduate assistants are responsible for all non-tuition fees required of graduate students.
