Duties of Graduate Assistants
Graduate assistants are assigned to faculty and work as a research assistant or a teaching assistant, depending on the needs of the faculty person. Graduate assistants are expected to work approximately 10 hours per week for a maximum of 150 hours total for each semester. The work is compensated at the rate of $10.00 per hour or a total of $1,500 over the course of the semester.
Application process
- Prospective students submit two applications: one application goes directly to the Chair of the Department where the program applicant is interested in is located (for nursing applicants, submit to the Director of the School of Nursing). Submit the application by the individual program’s admission deadline (or July 15th, whichever is the earliest) (see program specific information located elsewhere on the BCH website).
- The prospective student then submits a duplicate application to the Associate Dean’s office, to the attention of Judith Kraft.
- Both applications should be submitted via e-mail as an attached MSWord file that is labeled: BCH Waiver App. (insert student’s last name); applications may also be submitted via regular mail.
Applications should be submitted separately to Ms. Kraft and the appropriate Department Chair/School Director.
- The application deadline is the admission deadline for the program the student is interested in, or July 15, whichever is the earliest.
- Applications received by the Associate Dean’s office will be acknowledged via e-mail or regular mail. The e-mail address for Judith Kraft in the Associate Dean’s Office is j.kraft@unf.edu.
