Keep it up you're doing a great job. I have been admitted at Ohio University, and I'm waiting on my department for funding decision because I applied for graduate assistantships.
@@monioluwaogunleyeMy admission was defer for Fall 2025 by Ohio University due to late processing of my I.20 In my application status last before I received my offer, I applied for graduate assistantships position and it was before it waived. Does that mean that I have been considered for a graduate assistantships position? Thank you I'm looking forward to your reply.
@@alhajitejanjalloh5426 I think you should send an email to your graduate advisor about the status of your graduate assistantship. They will be in the best position to answer that question.
It is good and supportive information. I do get the admission at Ku leuven,Belgium to pursuit M.A in CADES program. I have a research and Teaching experience in my working organization. But how can i communicate with those who consider my graduate Assistanship.
@@chibuzorjamie1573 Balancing being a student, a GA and a mom require wisdom; These are what helped me; 1. I asked God for wisdom 2. I start reading early before the demand of GA kicks in 3. I understood my best reading hours ; my attention span is stronger in the morning from 5am to 10:00 and between 9pm till 12:00am. The remaining time is for GA work and extracurricular activities that I engage in.
@@toluwaakinbola92 personally, I don’t use it to write an email to graduate cordinator and I don’t recommend ChatGPT to write email. But you can use it as a guide and you can use your own word and experience to couch the email
Hello ma, thank you for the information. I am trying to apply for a particular GA position but I don't have a cover letter. Do you have any such template or advise on how to write a good one? Your help would be very much appreciated.
@@similoluwaolagbaju1238 Good morning ma. I am sorry I don’t have one at the moment. Can you send me your sample so I can edit and return back? I am sorry for my late response! Work has been demanding!
GA mean Graduate assistant! It can also be called Teaching Assistant or Graduate Student Instructor for PhD students. This is when graduate students both Masters or PhD students are hired!!
Hi. Thanks for this amazing video. So helpful. I do have a question. For grad school application, Is recommendation letter sent/demanded your application on the school website or they will request is later on?
@@monioluwaogunleye OK. Sorry about the typos. Let me put it this way; "during my application on a University's website (uploading of certificates and supporting documents), will I be required to upload/send my recommendation letters (from my Professors) or the University will ask for it on a later date (probably after my application has been received/considered)?? 👆🏾 I hope this is clearer. 🙏🏽
@@emmanuelbenibo1367 Yes, I understand better now. In some instance, you will be asked to upload your letter of recommendation. But in most instance, you will be asked to submit the email of your recommenders and the us universities that you apply to will send your recommenders a link to upoad your letter of recommendation. I hope you understand now! if you have any question, let me know.
I was in contact with a Prof before applying and he said I should apply for fall of 2025 and that he might have funding by then, I applied to the school and I have been admitted I've sent follow-up mail to the Prof but he is yet to respond, can I still message the Grad Cord and other departments asking for Assistantship positions?
Good content. Kindly keep it up. More so, as a prospective student, is it possible to start looking for assistantship when you've not been given admission? Thanks.
Thank you very. Please I graduated with a second class low in Agricultural Engineering. Please Will it be possible I will be admitted with a scholarship.
Your grade is not the only factors that will be considered for scholarship. Other factors include your leadership experience, your research experience, extracurricular activities etc
I got Graduate Assistant position for spring summer semester due not getting visa appointment date i deferred my admission to fall semester, can i get a deferral for the GTA? What should I do?
The best person that can answer this was your Graduate coordinator. I had the same issue when I deferred my admission. I sent an email to my Graduate Advisor/Cordinator and she said that my deferment will not affect my GA. So please send an email about your concern to your Graduate coordinator.
Thank you for the video, i would like to ask, am i to apply for admission before writing mails to professors or I'm to get an assistantship offer first before applying for admission? Also, if I'm applying for Fall 2025, when is the best time to begin the process ? Thank you very much
If you are applying for Fall 2025, the best time to start depend on the school you are looking to apply to. For example University of Michigan application start September but my school application start around Jan/Feb. But Generally I will say September 2024. This will give you time to write exam, write required Tests, get your transcript, search for schools and scholarships.
@@monioluwaogunleye Alright ma, meaning once I have confirmed that the department I'm applying into offer GA positions, then I go ahead and apply for admission and once I get admitted, I can then go ahead to send mails to proffesors indicating my interest in the GA positions. Is this right ma?
I sent the first email to my graduate cordinator asking if the department has GA after I submitted my application . They informed me that they did. But after I got my admission , I sent a follow up email on the GA. But if you are sending an email to a professor you will want to work with as a GA, send the email after you have gotten the admission.
@@monioluwaogunleye I applied for GA positions posted and advertised on the university website used for the purpose of searching GA for admitted students.

Good content. Kindly keep it up. More so, as a prospective student, is it possible to start looking for assistantship when you've not been given admission? Thanks.
Yes you can ask about GA position. But it’s advisable you apply to them after you have gotten admission.
When indicating teaching experience, does the class you taught matters?
@@osaosarugue4287 No it does not matter. You just have to discuss what you learnt during that time.

You write a mail about GA to the professor after you have gotten your admission.

Do you send cold emails to profs before or after gaining admission?
I sent the first email to my graduate cordinator asking if the department has GA after I submitted my application . They informed me that they did. But after I got my admission , I sent a follow up email on the GA. But if you are sending an email to a professor you will want to work with as a GA, send the email after you have gotten the admission.
does a 100% scholarship = Graduate assistant ?
Scholarship is not necessarily a GA. Graduate Assistantship and scholarship are different form of funding
Did u managed to secure GA prior to ur visa application or on ur second year ?
I applied for a GA after I got my admission. When I got the GA position, I applied for my f1 visa
