*Limitation on Graduate Assistant Appointments. Teaching, program/project assistant and research assistant appointments offer students who are actively pursuing advanced degrees the opportunity to obtain valuable academic experience. These titles are not intended to be used as substitutes for other employment titles (i.e., lecturer).

View Maximum Levels of Graduate Assistant Appointments

A Request for Exception to Maximum Levels of Graduate Assistantship Appointments form is only needed when requesting appointments that exceed the above levels.  Your Dean may require School/College review of some of these categories.  They will notify you separately of any additional school/college requirements.
