Department Scholarships, Grants, and Fellowships
In order to be considered for the University's funds you must complete the
Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA)
form, available at the Office of Financial Aid (second floor of St. Robert's Hall) or on-line at
www.fafsa.edu.gov
.
University Department Grants
are available on a competitive basis to continuing students who have completed at least one semester of their program. Your graduate advisor can provide you with the necessary information.
Rains Fellowships
provide qualified students with the opportunity to assist faculty members with their research needs. Rains fellows complete a maximum of 120 work hours for the academic school year (simultaneous Rains assistantships are not allowed), and receive $12 an hour. Interested students should discuss research possibilities with their graduate advisor.
A limited number of
Teaching Fellowships
are available through the Department. Teaching Fellows generally teach two sections of College Writing in the spring and a combination of English 112 and Introduction to Fiction, Poetry, or Drama in the spring. They also attend weekly meetings with the Director of Freshman Composition, participate in a week-long orientation seminar during the summer, and must complete the course, Composition Theory and Pedagogy, either previous to or during the course of their employment. Teaching Fellows receive a tuition remission and a monthly stipend. Competition for these positions is keen, and applications are accepted during the spring semester.
