How should tuition and fees be budgeted?
For every quarter/month of graduate student stipend in the budget, a quarter/month of tuition and fees must also be budgeted. A 50% appointment (20 hours work per week) is most common. A student cannot be appointed for more than 75% time. Appointments below 50% also are permitted, with tuition and fees pro-rated accordingly. For example, half the tuition and fees would be budgeted for a 25% appointment.
