The Office of Graduate Studies maintains the official list of GTA/GRA/GAs. Each semester a new list is prepared that includes the student’s name, KUID, department, appointment type and percent (FTE) for the appointment. This list is sent to the Registrar’s Office, Student Financial Aid, Student Financial Accounting, and the Budget Office so they in turn, can apply appropriate tuition and fee waivers to student accounts based on appointment type and FTE. Policies governing assistantships are detailed on page 30 of the Graduate School Catalog.
