Students are responsible for all student fees. Under Internal Revenue Service (IRC 127), tuition waivers awarded to graduate students are to be considered taxable income once the total tuition waiver amount exceeds $5250. This means graduate students who receive more than $5250 in tuition waivers in a Calander year must be taxed on the amount exceeding the allowable amount.   Compensation Additional Details: This graduate student position includes tuition remission, stipend, and housing. The standard contract period is August 3, 2026, through May 14, 2027; however, the official start and end dates may vary based on the communicated hire date, completion of required onboarding, and successful completion of background checks. Continuation in the position is contingent upon satisfactory fulfillment of position duties, strong work performance, and excellence in academic and scholastic achievement. Graduate student employees are bound by the Student Code of Conduct.

The GDC is not permitted to withdraw from graduate coursework after the semester begins without approval from Residence Life and Housing. The GDC also understands that any change to their academic schedule may result in a financial penalty for which they are fully responsible. WCU employees are not eligible for graduate positions. By accepting this position, the GDC understands that withdrawing from individual courses that reduce their enrollment below the required number of credits may result in a corresponding reduction of the tuition waiver. The GDC may be responsible for paying any resulting balance, up to and including the full cost of tuition for the affected course(s). The GDC further understands that withdrawing from the University, resigning from the position, or being terminated before the end of the semester may result in the removal of the full tuition waiver from their account. The GDC acknowledges that they may be responsible for paying any remaining balance, up to and including the full cost of tuition. The GDC understands that if employment ends or is terminated for any reason, they will be required to vacate the housing assignment within 48 hours. The University reserves the right to require immediate vacancy if the GDC presents a threat to the health, safety, or welfare of any member of the University community. The GDC understands that any separation from the University—including a graduate staff‑initiated withdrawal or resignation, or a university‑initiated termination—will result in the stipend ending on the date the job action occurs or the date RLH is notified of withdrawal or resignation.
