Are graduate and/or research assistantships available?
A small number of students receive half time (10 hr) graduate assistantships from the department. Students receive tuition and a small monthly stipend for assisting faculty with teaching responsibilities or research projects. These assistantships are typically awarded based on graduate admission criteria. Some SLP graduate students also apply for and receive graduate assistantships in other units across campus. Faculty with externally-funded research grants also hire students to assist on their projects. Students work for the faculty member in return for tuition and a monthly stipend.
