Teaching assistantships currently carry an annual stipend of $9,700 for students with a BA and $10,000 for students with an MA or the equivalent. TAs also receive a waiver of all tuition costs and teach two courses each semester. No final offer of assistantship can be made until all application materials have been received.

Additionally, our students compete each year for three Walton Family Foundation Fellowships of $10,000 and several Lily Peter Fellowships of $1,000. Several other graduate fellowships worth $3,000 per year for up to four years are also available, as well as "start-up" fellowships for first-year students.

Translation students working from Middle-Eastern languages such as Arabic or Hebrew are eligible for non-teaching fellowships of $12,000 per year.
