Assistantships

PhD NEP students are eligible for teaching assistantships. Work includes being a TA in the undergraduate nutrition and exercise labs. Details about the positions will be discussed with individual students during the application and admissions process.

Reduced Tuition Opportunity

Residents of certain western states and territories, who are accepted to the MS CPD, MS NEP, or PhD NEP, are eligible for significantly reduced tuition. Rather than pay out-of-state costs, tuition is assessed at or near the cost of resident tuition. This typically saves about $7,000 per semester.
