Graduate Assistantship and Partial-Waiver Packages
Graduate Assistantship/Partial tuition
waiver packages, partial tuition waiver only packages
All financial aid discussed
below is subject to change depending on
Brooks College of Health allocations
For the coming academic year, the Brooks College of Health anticipates awarding several graduate assistantship/partial tuition waiver packages and several partial tuition waiver only packages (without graduate assistantship). All of these packages are for students new to BCH graduate programs, and will be granted for a maximum two year period for those students maintaining eligibility, and satisfactory performance in the assistantships. Occasionally students relinquish their packages prior to the end of the two year award. In these cases the remainder of the award will be given to another student, however the award will end at the time the original award was scheduled to end.
NOTE: All fee waivers are partial, and do not cover the total cost of fees. All fee waiver packages are subject to funding.
