Fee Payment Information for Academic Student Employees

Fee Payment Information for Associates and Teaching Assistants (TAs)

Graduate students who are appointed as Teaching Assistants or Associate-Ins (sub 0, fixed salary) at a minimum of 25% for the entire quarter are eligible for payment of graduate student health insurance (GSHIP) and partial fee remission that covers Tuition (formerly the Education fee) and the Student Services fee (formerly the Registration fee).  Nonresident Supplemental Tuition (formerly Nonresident Tuition) is not covered. 

The fee payments are issued to those students whose fees are not paid by another fund source (example: outside agency, federal government, Cal Vet, etc.).

Graduate Division TA Fee Deferment Program

This program is for fees only, not Nonresident Supplemental Tuition.  The TA Fee Deferment program allows Teaching Assistants and Associate-Ins (sub 0, fixed salary) who are appointed at a minimum of 25% for the entire quarter to pay the balance of their fees (excluding Nonresident Supplemental Tuition) through payroll deduction. Complete program details and application here.

Graduate Division TA Loan Program

TA Loans are available in Fall Quarter only.  The TA Loan program provides Teaching Assistants and Associate-Ins (sub 0, fixed salary) with a loan for living expenses until receipt of their first paycheck on Nov 1st.  The maximum loan cannot exceed one month’s salary minus the amount of any TA Fee Deferment requested. There is no interest charge.  Complete program details and application here.

Fee Payment Information for Readers and Tutors

Graduate students appointed as Readers or Tutors at a minimum of 25% for the entire quarter are eligible to receive partial fee remission that covers graduate student health insurance (GSHIP), Tuition (formerly the Education fee) and the Student Services fee (formerly the Registration fee).  Nonresident Supplemental Tuition (formerly Nonresident Tuition) is not covered.

Effective fall quarter 2011, GSHIP, Tuition and Student Services fee payments are issued at the beginning of the quarter based upon the assumption that the student will work the minimum hours required for fee remission (110 hours).  Fee remission will not be paid at the start of the quarter if a student has a registration or financial “hold” placed on his/her account because he/she is in arrears from a previous quarter.

NOTE:  If the student does not work the required number of hours by the end of the quarter, the fee payments will be rescinded and the amount must be repaid by the student.

The fee payments are issued to those students whose fees are not paid by another fund source (example: outside agency, federal government, Cal Vet, etc.).
