Within the limits of availability and the competence of individual students, all multi-year Fellows are required to participate in the teaching and research programs of their departments as a form of scholarly apprenticeship in at least three years of their fellowships. Compensation for such service will be supplemented to a level no less than that awarded for the first year of the fellowship. Other fellowships may include a teaching/research appointment as available in each department.
A significant part of the GSAS fellowship budget is a Federal Work-Study allocation that is used for eligible students appointed as teaching or research fellows. A portion of the stipend for these students is funded from Federal Work-Study accounts but does not affect the total overall award received.

Therefore, ALL students who have been awarded teaching or research fellowships for the 2008-2009 academic year, and who are US citizens or Permanent Residents, are required to submit the following financial aid forms as a condition of their fellowship:
