GSR appointments range from one to two terms at a time (fall, spring). Summer term appointments are awarded individually. Appointment renewals are subject to satisfactory job performance and availability of funding support.
Stipend
The monthly stipend payment for a GSR is currently $1,537.50.
Tuition Benefit
GSRs will receive full tuition coverage to cover up to 15 credits. Tuition benefits will be renewed each period subject to satisfactory academic performance.
Health Insurance
GSRs will be provided individual coverage under the UPMC Health Plan for graduate students. Family coverage is available at an additional cost to the student. |
