Required health insurance, available in a variety of plans at student group rates, is paid partially by the University.

University Fellowships: Applicants having outstanding academic credentials may be nominated by the department for a University Fellowship. These awards typically include a year of fellowship followed by a year of teaching or research assistantship, followed by a third year of fellowship support. Students who wish to be considered for these awards should complete their application by January 1st each year.
