• Graduate students who have selected teaching as their functional area are encouraged to participate as teaching assistants to facilitate their future employment in schools of nursing. 
• Non-resident students approved to be a GTA or GRA prior to registration are eligible for resident tuition and fees.  (for additional information, see Graduate Catalog).
