Scholarships & Assistantships
The application deadline for Graduate Assistantships and Scholarships is June 1st. Only admitted students are reviewed for financial assistance. Late applicants for scholarship assistance are reviewed as funding permits. All Graduate Assistantships and Scholarships are awarded for the Fall term and are one year awards. Students are welcome to apply more than once for awards, but there is no guarantee of being awarded funds multiple times.

Graduate Assistantships
Students may only be considered for a graduate assistantship
for the School in which their degree program resides. The School of
Education and Child Life as well as the School of Social Work and Family
Studies will consider first year students for this designation with
the exception of Master of Social Work students. The Master of Social
Work students may only be considered as they begin their second year.
This refers to Master of Social Work students in their concentration
