Making Contact Early
As early as possible, students are strongly encouraged to call the contact person for the department they are interested in serving as a graduate assistant. In this way, the student can learn more about the number of positions available, the duties involved, and the selection timetable. The student can also describe his or her background to be sure there is a good match with possible assistantship responsibilities.

Application and Notification
The Graduate Assistantship Application form can be obtained from the following office:

Office of Graduate Studies
College of Education
Kansas State University
2 Bluemont Hall
Manhattan, KS 66506-5301
(785) 532-5595
coegrads@ksu.edu

Completed applications should be sent to each department for which employment is sought. For primary consideration, the application deadline is April 1 of each year, but early submission is recommended. Applications will be received until all graduate assistantship positions are filled.

While each department has its own timeline for selecting the recipients of the graduate assistantships, every effort is made to notify recipients by May 1 of each year. Again, it is best to talk with the departmental assistantship contact person early about the selection timeline.
