The SUS program offers both tuition waver and graduate assistantships. In order to qualify for either, you must:
- be admitted to the SUS program;
- enroll as a full-time graduate student (taking a minimum of 9 hours per semester); and
- maintain a 3.0 GPA (with no grades below B and no grades of “incomplete”).
The primary consideration in awarding tuition waivers is need. Tuition waivers are considered a gift and no additional expectations are associated with them. Graduate assistantships are offered as part of an employment contract.
To apply for a tuition waiver or graduate assistantship, fill out an application and return to the SUS office. Completed applications must be recieved by March 15th of the current year at 5:00 p.m. Late applications will not be considered.
