GSAS Summer Information

During the summer, students working as research assistants or graduate assistants will receive a tuition scholarship for the out-of-state portion of tuition only.  Full time assistantships (20 hours per week) will receive a tuition scholarship coving their full out-of-state portion of tuition and half time assistantships (10 hours per week) will receive a tuition scholarship covering half their out-of-state portion of tuition. 

  • Scholarships covering the in-state portion of tuition are not available during the summer from the Graduate School.  
  • We do not perform an in-state tuition recharge during the summer. The in-state portion of tuition is the responsibility of the student or hiring department.

Summer teaching assistantships should be handled by the hiring department and students who have a fellowship should refer to their award letter for information regarding whether or not summer tuition is included.  

RAs and GAs who will not be enrolled in classes during the summer do not need a GSAS form submitted for them however a GSAS can be submitted for the summer session to be consistent with offer letters or tracking purposes.

*If students are not working as an assistant during the summer, departments could hire them as a student non-work study or STEPS employee.

Please remember that students must accept the GSAS form by a certain date each semester.
