The Graduate School offers graduate students assistantships and fellowships. Fee waivers are also available through the Tuition Wavier Program. Fee waiver eligibility is limited to three years for master’s students and five years for doctoral students. The waiver applies only to courses applicable and relevant to the student's degree program or those courses that have been approved by the student's adviser.
