Is a PhD stipend for a year or a semester?


Recommended Posts

I'm doing my Masters right now and I was told I would have a 15,000 dollar stipend.  I thought this was for the year, but I'm actually getting that for the semester.  For PhD programs, when I read some schools offer funding/stipend, is that for the year or the semester?

Usually, schools offer academic year-long stipend. Wisconsin, for example, pays a roughly $21,000 fellowship for first-year history students, disbursed over 9 months.
