I am a graduate student and am planning to be on withdrawn status to save tuition and fees while conducting my field work. Am I eligible to apply?
Yes, you are eligible to apply as long as you can provide a letter of support from your faculty sponsor stating that the reason for the withdrawn status is to conduct PRRP project-related field work and if your campus is willing to endorse your application. The ‘withdrawn’ status is allowed if it is to conduct dissertation research activities and not due to other employment opportunities or activities unrelated to dissertation research.
