Graduate Assistanship Program

Approximately 100 graduate assistantship (GA) positions are sponsored by The College of Saint Rose each academic year. They are meant to provide qualified master’s degree candidates with opportunities to augment their educational experiences. Assistantships place emphasis on meaningful professional activities through engagement with college faculty and/or administrators. The selection process is competitively-based and will include an interview.

In order to be eligible students must:

• be unconditionally admitted to a master’s degree at The College of Saint Rose.
• be enrolled full-time (at least 9 graduate credits).
• maintain a minimum overall GPA of 3.0.

How does it work?

• GAs are awarded a $3,200 tuition based grant in return for 150 hours of work each semester.  
• The award is applied directly to the GAs student account (much like a student loan or grant) at the end of each semester/completion of 150 hours.
