All graduate students who teach during Summer Session are appointed as graduate student employees with a job classification that does not carry tuition benefits.
In some cases students may need to enroll in a class offered during summer that is related to their graduate studies. CLA will fund tuition benefits for those students.
Graduate teaching assistant appointments for CLA May term 2008 and Summer term 2008 courses are eligible. These students are automatically appointed under the 9575 job classification in summer session (non-tuition-bearing type). Research Assistants, Administrative Assistants or other types of non-instructional appointments outside of the 9575 appointment classification are not eligible.
Funding is available primarily for students enrolled in CLA graduate programs.
Students can additional information and the application form on CLA Administration website at: http://www.cla.umn.edu/intranet/grad/summerTuition.html.
The firm deadline for submitting requests is April 25, 2008.
