Graduate Assistantships


A graduate assistant (GA) is part-time position (no more than 20 hours of work per week), that provides employment experience and the benefit of partial-tuition remission. In most, but not all cases, 15 free credit hours of tuition are provided to the GA for the duration of the position appointment period, which is typically August 1-July 31.

Please Note: You must be enrolled as a graduate student at Lenoir-Rhyne to apply for a GA position. All of the following GA positions are offered on the Hickory campus unless otherwise noted.
