Participants in the Graduate Residential Scholars Program (GRSP) receive free housing for one or two years in an on-campus residential community of graduate students representing diverse backgrounds and disciplinary interests. To be eligible for a GRSP position an individual must also secure a graduate assistantship (e.g., teaching assistantship, research assistantship) from his/her graduate program that includes a stipend (at least $10,000 per academic year) and full waiver of tuition and fees. Stipends from non-departmental sources (e.g., government fellowships) also are suitable. Twenty GRSP positions are available, with approximately 10 new positions opening up each fall. Interested students should submit a completed
GRSP Application Form. Questions may be directed to Dr. Alfred Dufty, Associate Dean of the Graduate College, Boise State University, Boise, ID, 83725. Email: adufty@boisestate.edu, telephone: 208-426-3647. Selection of GRSP award recipients begins on February 1 with notification in late February.

Students interested in the GRSP are encouraged to check with their program coordinator to ensure that their application material is considered by the graduate program prior to the February 1 GRSP deadline.
