GRADUATE
ASSISTANT TUITION:
Based on a recent federal government ruling, tuition scholarships
may be charged to grant accounts for those Graduate Assistants who
perform work for sponsored projects. This is effective with the Spring
2001 semester. Tuition dollars must be split among accounts in the
same proportion as Graduate Assistant stipend dollars. Existing commitments
to pay tuition from university funds as a contribution to a grant
will be honored. All grant proposals submitted after January 1, 2001
that budget for Graduate Assistant stipends should include dollars
for Graduate Assistant tuition remissions. Questions should be directed
to edward.ebert@uni.edu
or 3-6437.
