FINANCIAL AID
Students in the EdS program may be eligible for various types of financial aid. In addition, Graduate Assistantships are awarded by the Florida Center for Instructional Technology and the Department of Educational and Psychological Studies. These assistantships require research, teaching, or administrative service totaling approximately 20 hours per week. Stipends for these appointments are in the $7,000 - $10,000 range for two semesters.
Tuition waivers may also be available to graduate students, providing for the forgiveness of either in-state or out-of-state fees. These waivers may be combined with an assistantship or awarded separately.
