( votes)Eligibility:
-To be eligible to hold a Graduate Fellowship (GF), a student must be registered as a full-time, regular (not “on-leave”) student in a Master’s or Doctoral program. In programs where fees are assessed on a per-credit basis, students must be taking at least six credit hours to be eligible to receive a Graduate Fellowship.
-Eligible students must have a minimum first-class (3.50) cumulative grade point average. In exceptional cases, other evidence of outstanding ability may outweigh this criterion. Since academic merit is the primary criterion for ranking eligible applicants, departments must notify all applicants in advance if additional criteria will be used.
-Students will be eligible to hold a GF only during the first 9 semesters of a Master’s program and during the first 15 semesters of a Ph.D. program.
-Students who did not complete a Master’s program before transferring into a Phd are eligible to hold the GF within the first 15 semesters of their PhD, from the PhD start date.
