Gaylord College offers several scholarships for graduate students each academic year. Graduate students can request financial assistance through Gaylord-specific funds or through OU resources.
Students interested in Gaylord or OU bursar scholarships should apply through the Centralized Academic Scholarship Hub (CASH) by February 1 to be considered for scholarships in the next academic year.
The Student Experience Fund is for undergraduate and master’s students with demonstrated financial need for travel-related and other experiential learning activities in Gaylord College.
Funding is awarded to students based on documented, unforeseen financial need.
The purpose of this grant is to help Gaylord graduate students be productive scholars by assisting their research projects.
Assistantship work may include tasks such as assisting a faculty member with research, working with students in a lab section of a course, helping with grading or class preparation. A full assistantship involves 20 hours of work per week during the regular academic year. It carries a waiver of nine hours per semester. A stipend is provided for 20 hours of work per week. Student health insurance is also included.
Gaylord College offers graduate assistantships to select master’s students each year. The assistantships are nine-month appointments and include a tuition waiver. Assistantships are renewable for a second year of studies.
To apply, complete the form before the February 1 deadline. The form will ask for your latest resume and for three recommenders and their contact information.
The assistantship application is separate from the application for admission to OU’s Graduate College.
Accelerated students are eligible in their second year of graduate studies.
The Gaylord College Ph.D. program offers graduate research and teaching assistantships renewable for four years, plus scholarships for travel and research grants. Applicants seeking funding should strive to meet the early application deadline of Dec. 15. More information about assistantships and financial support is available at the Graduate College Website.
