At the beginning of each term, Graduate Studies generates a list of enrolled PhD students and applies the following filters:
- Students beyond 12 active terms are excluded
- Students with a CGPA below 3.00 are excluded
- Students with unsatisfactory progress reports are excluded
All remaining eligible students are automatically offered the scholarship and must accept the award offer to receive the payment.
- Awards are disbursed according to the standard payment schedule and policies, available here.
- Students who later receive a tuition waiver or withdraw from their program will have their PhD Research Scholarship payment reversed.
