As the end of the semester is upon us, a reminder that if you are funding Master Graduate Assistants and they are planning to work with you this summer but they do not plan to register for classes, now is the time to work with your home department administrative assistant to make sure the students are switched to bi-weekly pay status.
Master GAs are not required to take classes during the summer however if you want them to work for you as a Graduate Assistant over the summer (versus hourly), they must register for six credit hours for the summer. In this case, they will continue to receive a monthly stipend for May-August as well as tuition/fee waivers. Please provide your administrative assistant the appropriate accounts to charge.
All PhD Graduate Assistants MUST register for summer classes. If they have passed their exams, they only need to register for two credit hours. If they have not taken their exams yet, they must be registered for six credit hours. If your funding source for summer is different than the spring, please let me know as soon as possible.
As always, please let me know if you have any questions.
