All students who apply to the M.A. or Au.D. programs in Speech and Hearing Sciences will be automatically considered for funding through these three mechanisms: assistant instructorships, assistant instructorships for ASL courses, and research assistantships.
Completed applications must be submitted by January 15 to be considered for funding.
Assistant instructorships: We have a limited number of assistant instructorships (AI) available. These are usually offered to incoming students with the highest GPAs and GRE scores.
Assistant instructorships in ASL: Students who have taken several levels (typically four) of American Sign Language (ASL) may also qualify for funding as assistant instructors to ASL courses. You are encouraged to describe your ASL or other special skills in the application to the graduate program.
Research assistantships: Funding in the form of research assistantships is occasionally available.
Students who are interested in the STEPS program—the bilingual track (Spanish-English) in the M.A. program—may also receive funding. To be considered, indicate your interest in this specific program on your application.
