ASSISTANTSHIPS

The department typically offers several graduate assistant positions each year. The moderate stipend varies depending upon the time commitment and level of appointment (MA versus Ph.D.). Graduate Assistantships are not considered a part of the student's financial aid award. You may contact the program coordinator (206-281-2312) to inquire about graduate assistantships only after you have been admitted to the program.

FINANCIAL AID

Financial aid, in the form of student loans and work-study, is administered by Student Financial Services (SFS). Financial aid is available to students who are admitted as degree-seeking students in and who demonstrate financial need. Specific questions should be directed to SFS. The office is located on the garden level of Demaray Hall, or you may call (206) 281-2061. www.spu.edu/sfs
