TA Offers 5/10 Update

May 10, 2011

The third round of TA offers will probably go out Thursday. This will be a small round. After that, offer will be made on an as needed basis over the summer and at the start of classes. We usually have a half dozen to dozen additional offers arise over the summer.

For students who have offers: class assignments will be made sometime in June, once we have background information and course preferences from the new incoming TAs.

For students who applied for a TA but have not yet received an offer: If you are a qualified PhD student and applied on time, but have not yet received an offer: we have a number of PhD students (over a dozen) who applied but have not yet gotten offers. I hope to be able to make offers to many students in this category, but how many students I am able to make offers to will depend on how many positions come up over the summer. If you are an MS student who applied: because of the number of PhD TA applicants I have not yet been able to consider MS students. If I am able to make enough offers over the summer then it is possible we'll have a few positions for which we have no qualified PhD applicants. In that case I'll be able to consider MS students.

For more information about the offer process, please see the department's TA Handbook.
