Assistantship

Financial aid grantees must render some hours of student assistantship in a unit of the University to which one may be assigned for one school year. The number of hours to be rendered depends on the percentage of the grant awarded to the student.
Student assistantship work shall be administered by the Office of Student Affairs in coordination with the other units of the University (for 1st to 3rd year students), and by the respective Graduate Schools of the grantees (for 4th and 5th year students).

The level of financial assistance you are given may be modified based on your performance as a student assistant.
