The sponsor of my private grant is willing to pay 100% of my graduate assistants tuition; why am I constrained by RITs policy of awarding only 50% tuition waivers?
If the sponsor willing to pay 100% of the graduate student’s tuition, then request 50% tuition remission (to be in compliance with RIT’s Tuition Remission Policy) and a 50% merit scholarship (from the sponsor). However, keep in mind that no services can be required of the graduate assistant for the merit scholarship portion.
