Approximately 85 graduate assistantship (GA) positions are offered annually across all three Colleges and a number of University divisions.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
All GA positions are paid through tuition remission. The amount of tuition remission received will be dependent on the number of hours required for the position and will vary across positions.<\/p>\n
(*DPT students are on a flat rate tuition remission and not a \u2018per credit\u2019 rate.)<\/p>\n
Each semester, students are expected to work the requisite number of hours associated with their GA category as identified above. The GA and their supervisor should clarify the work schedule at the beginning of the assistantship. Generally, students are not expected to work when they are on a semester break or on a university holiday. However, GAs ARE expected to provide the requisite number of hours of work each semester. Describing the work commitment of each GA category in terms of a certain number of hours each week is intended to provide a general sense of the weekly time commitment, not to dictate a specific and rigid weekly schedule.<\/p>\n

Positions are typically posted between April and August. Most postings are visible for several weeks leading up to the start of a new semester.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Graduate Assistant (GA) program Approximately 85 graduate assistantship (GA) positions are offered annually across all three Colleges and a number of University divisions.
