Tuition (excluding differentials) & Selected Fee Waiver Eligibility: Must meet registration requirements throughout the term and hold an assistantship between 25% and 67% for a minimum of 91 continuous calendar days during the period beginning a week before instruction and the last day of finals during Fall or Spring semester and for 41 continuous calendar days during the summer term service period. A 25%-67% time appointment must be maintained for the duration of the assistantship to be eligible for a tuition and selected fee waiver. Increasing the assistantship above 67% or decreasing it below 25% will cause loss of the waiver. The only exceptions are appointments during the break between Fall and Spring semesters, as well as during the Spring break.

Note: Those who received an assistantship tuition waiver in the Spring semester, but do not have an assistantship in the summer, will be eligible for the summer auto waiver. A student with a summer assistantship must meet the criteria for a summer waiver regardless of whether or not they held a Spring appointment.

Student vs Graduate Assistant
The following is meant to help distinguish a Student Employee appointment from a Grad appointment ."Grad Assistant-Student" is no longer an appropriate title.  In legacy systems it was used to distinguish a Student Employee (SA) job held by someone with a Grad Assistantship (GA).  However, Banner allows a mix of employee-group jobs, so the title of each job should be distinctive to the e-class.

Student Group (SA)

• Undergraduates

• Graduate students doing Student Employee work (may be paid at higher rate with Student Employment approval)

Hourly Group(HG)

• Graduate students doing Graduate level work being paid by the hour

Grad Group(GA)

• Grad Assistantships with percent appointments

• May have additional appointment as Grad student defined under Hourly.

• May have additional appointment as Student employee.

• The type of work being done is the defining qualifier. Appointments for Student Employment work need to be routed to the Student Employment Director.
