Our graduate stipends are very competitive. Our graduate students work as teaching assistants in a supervised teacher-training program. In return for teaching three courses per year, they receive free tuition, health benefits, and a stipend. In addition to the stipend, our graduate students are eligible for the Thompson scholarship. This past year (2003-2004), the Thompson scholarship fund awarded $2,824 to German and Slavic graduate students in residence and $3,766 to German and Slavic graduate students studying in German and Russian-speaking countries. Other competitive fellowships and scholarships are also available. Additional information on student aid for graduate students is available in the Graduate Bulletin, the Fellowships and Awards Office, and the graduate section of the PSU Office of Student Aid.
