Graduate Assistant Support
Beginning Fall 2023, we will begin providing some of the most competitive minimum
graduate stipends in the nation and covering 75% of the student health insurance premium
costs for graduate assistants.
Graduate Assistants are automatically enrolled in the health insurance each semester
(fall, summer, spring). If insurance is not wanted, GAs have to waive each semester,
even if they waived the previous semester.
This page will be used to disseminate information needed to plan for FY 2024. It
will also serve as a centralized resource for students, faculty, and administrators.
