Financial support for graduate students is provided, for the most part, in the form of University and Departmental fellowships and assistantships. However, there are also other forms of support.
In the Fall of 2007, approximately 91% of all CS graduate students received some form of support from the CS department : approximately 14% fellowships, 39% research assistantships, 38% teaching assistantships. An additional 6% received support from other Purdue entities.
Tuition for graduate assistants and Purdue fellows is remitted. Fees for incoming graduate assistants in fall 2007 were about $777 per semester. International students pay an additional $60 per semester.
The University provides medical insurance for graduate assistants employed at least half-time for at least one semester. In 2006-2007 assistants pay approximately $300 of the annual cost. Purdue pays the rest. The university also contributes to the healthcare costs for dependents of graduate assistants.
All University fees and tuition are subject to change without notice.
