So my grad school is offering GA ships, you can get 18 credits paid for for the entire year (almost $15,000), and in exchange you have to work 20 hours a week. The crappy part is that the stipend is $1,000 a year! How can I live on $500 a semester? Granted the tuition is decreased to almost nothing, but still. Is it worth it to even apply for this assistantship? Also I live 2 hours away from this school so if I do apply and get the GA ship, how can I pay rent? I may just have to find a full-time m-f down there and move and just nix the whole GA ship idea.
