Teaching Assistant Scholarship program application

Please read the above requirements before submitting.

Please Note: It is a requirement that students enroll in at least 4 paid classes per week in order to be considered for the 1 free class. (4 paid classes + 1 free class = 5 enrolled classes total with 2 TA Classes). If a student is enrolled in more paid classes per week, they will not be eligible for another free class unless they meet the requirement of 9 paid classes per week. If students reach this requirement and would like to take another free class, they must assist two additional classes per week on top of their original TA classes. (9 paid classes + 2 free classes = 11 enrolled classes total with 4 TA classes.)
