15.7. Alternative Funding

Students in direct tuition sponsorship or fellowship agreements with external organizations, where tuition is paid directly by the sponsoring organization (e.g., a corporate employer or foreign government paying tuition on behalf of the student) rather than through an NDSU-administered grant or contract, are not eligible for a Graduate Assistant tuition waiver. The GA Tuition Rate will also not be utilized. This clause does not apply to sponsorship or benefits from the US military to active service members and veterans.
