Assistantships & Employment

Graduate assistantships and campus employment are available to eligible graduate students wishing to offset the cost of their education.

Graduate assistantships provide tuition reimbursement and a living expense stipend. Positions are available for full-time graduate students and require the student to work 20 hours a week in exchange for a waiver of tuition for 9 credits per semester and a small stipend ($1,250 per semester). Marymount University is an AA/EEO employer. To apply for a graduate assistantship, visit the Marymount Jobs Web site.

Through Federal Work-Study, on-campus jobs are available to full-time graduate students who demonstrate need based on the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). View steps to complete the FAFSA. To qualify for this program, the student must be eligible to work in the U.S. The earnings are not directly applied to student accounts. Before students can be paid, they will be required to complete federally mandated employment paperwork, including an I-9 form, which establishes identity and work authorization, as well as federal and state tax forms.

Campus Employment is available to full-time students who are not eligible for Federal Work-Study. The University pays these students from its own resources. Students apply for jobs through the Student Campus Employment Office.
