While applications for admission are accepted all year, Graduate Assistantship (GA) applications are only accepted once a year. Financial aid and admission are separate processes, and one must first be admitted before being considered for Graduate Assistantship (GA). Applications for graduate assistantships must be received before the deadline. If you are awarded an assistantship, you will be notified by mid-late April.

Research Assistant (RA) positions are personally selected by faculty members who have external grant money. As you develop your own special interests in computer science and form research relationships with faculty you may be considered for a research assistant position, but this is solely under the authority of the faculty member and his/her grant.
