We're engaged (with other offices on campus) in drafting such a policy and could use some guidance from others who have dealt with or are currently dealing with this issue. Do you require that PIs request agency funding for tuition for grad students employed on the grant? If so, are there standing exceptions to that policy? a standard procedure for having it waived? In the past we've "encouraged" PIs to include in budgets submitted to potential sponsors a request for graduate tuition for any grad student employed on the grant, but there's been no requirement to do so. If the PI could not or chose not to ask the agency for tuition, the University cost-shared tuition for the grad students paid by the grant. I'd really appreciate knowing what other institutions do, as well as reading your insights into the various issues the question raises (e.g., is consistency an issue when guidelines are specific and vary? Are federal agencies more reluctant to fund tuition than their guidelines usually suggest? Are paid internships treated as assistantships?). Thanks for your help. I'll compile and share any responses that come directly to me rather than to the listserv. Debra Young, Ph.D. Sponsored Programs Information Specialist Office of Research P.O.
