Admission to Candidacy Process
The Department of Psychology and Neuroscience offers a pay differential for graduate research assistants (GRA’s) who have completed their comps and are approved for a doctoral degree. To qualify for this salary increase (pre-comp to post-comp rate) the student employee needs to provide a copy of the official “admission to candidacy” letter from the Graduate School to their Finance & HR Professional contact in the Business Office. The Business Office will not be notified by the Graduate School. It is the student employee’s responsibility to promptly provide a copy of this letter. The salary increase will be effective the semester following when we receive notification. For more information please contact your Finance & HR Professional.
