IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT:

The School of Graduate Studies has just announced that have three tuition waiver awards available for Spring semester.  As is is sometimes the case in academia, this is on short notice and we must forward applications on a very quick turn around.  Please realize these three tuition awards are going out to entire Grad School, so availability is very limited.

If you are interested in applying for one of these awards, follow the instructions in the Call for Applications.

Completed applications are due in Dr. Funda’s mailbox NO LATER THAN MONDAY, NOVEMBER 21 AT 5 PM.

Note:  We anticipate another round of tuition waiver award applications in early Spring semester (for fall semester). Typically, we have a few more waiver available at that time.  Please watch the blog for notice of that application round in January.  Meanwhile, you can consider this as training/practice for that.  

The following is from the School of Graduate Studies:
