W: Hey, what’s the news?(22)You look so happy.
M: Really?
W: Come on! It’s written all over your face.
M: Oh, well, I’m still in shock. I just got the green light from admissions.
W: Fantastic! What do you get, your fellowship, assistantship or scholarship?
M:(22)They offer me a full scholarship. It’s much better than I’ve hoped for. It will cover tuition, room and board. With that I won’t have to sponge off my folks.
W: Could you talk with me about scholarships, assistantships and fellowships?
M: Okay,(23)financial aid in the form of scholarships, assistantships, grants, etc. is available to students.
W: Yes, I’d like you to define them more specifically.
M:(23)Fellowships, scholarships, assistantships and others are awarded on the basis of merit and do not normally require an analysis of financial need. Fellowships are assigned to full-time students of high academic standard, the amount ranging from $600 to $800.
W: What about the others?
M:(24)All scholarships provide tuition expense only and require full-time graduate status. Assistantships are made up of three types: teaching, research and graduate. Only full-time graduate students are qualified for assistantships.
W: Any requirements for them?
M:(25)Yes, assistantship holders are required to teach 20 hours or to do 20 hours of research a week. All assistantships carry an allowance and most provide a tuition relief. Assistants are required to carry 9 graduate credit hours to be considered full time.
W: I take it for granted that you have got the scholarship. Am I hopeful to get full scholarship?
M: If you want to qualify for the scholarship, you must study hard and get the highest score.
