We do not offer automatic funding to M.A. students; however, we may be able to offer a limited number of teaching assistantships and research assistantships to qualified students. Teaching assistant positions are posted in May and November of each year. The Graduate Program Coordinator will send an email to all registered and incoming students to alert them of the postings.
