Funds for tuition for graduate assistants on sponsored activities are provided by the deans of schools and colleges and are linked to institutional F&A recovery.   Consequently, in all cases, funds available for tuition contribution are limited.

Students engaged as graduate assistants in sponsored activities that recover the full, federally approved F&A rate for the program type may be eligible for institutional contribution of tuition expenses if approved by the college or school dean.   Your unit may provide an amount ordinarily not to exceed that charged to the sponsor (1-to-1).  The sponsored award and the unit’s tuition account will be used equally to draw down the credit used.

Any unused tuition credit hours per academic year cannot be carried forward to the following academic year.   It is a “use it or lose it” tuition cost sharing commitment.

Students engaged as fellows will have any tuition costs not covered by the sponsored award provided by their home unit.
