Financial Support
While we cannot guarantee financial aid, we work to secure teaching assistant (TA) positions for our students. The number of TA positions available each semester varies.
TA Benefits
- Full tuition reimbursement
- A stipend each semester; stipend amounts vary but can be as much as $8,250 per semester
- Health insurance coverage
Also, since nine credit hours constitute a full-time graduate academic load, you may have time for part-time jobs, paid internships, etc., in lieu of a TA assignment.
Visit The Graduate School website for more information about financial aid for graduate students, and the NC State Financial Aid website for available financial aid and scholarship programs.
