Graduate Assistantships are available. Graduate Assistants have an opportunity to work in the department, the clinic, or with a faculty member with different sorts of tasks including research, managing the Davison Lab, the Hearing Aid Dispensary, etc. The number of work hours required of a Graduate Assistant are typically 10/week and more.

Students who believe they qualify, must submit a new Scholarship Application (for the scholarships and assistantships), each year in order to be considered. Information about Scholarships can be obtained from the Graduate Program Director.

The dollar amount of scholarships is calculated based on number of semester hours for which students actually register. Hofstra's scholarship awards may be used only for tuition. The amount of departmental Graduate Assistantship awards is based on an hourly scale.

All awards are renewable and must be reapplied for each academic year.

Non-departmental Graduate Assistantships are posted on the Hofstra Web site.

Periodically, some work-study monies become available for graduate students. Please inquire about work-study in the Speech Department office.

The deadline for scholarship and assistantship awards for applicants to the Graduate Program is January 15th.

A scholarship application is submitted with the student's application for admission.
