<p>Is it possible to get TA/RA in the first semester?</p>
<p>If yes, then what are the determining factors… what are they looking for in the potential assistants.??</p>

<p>What department are you applying for? And is it for a MA/MS or a phD?</p>
<p>I have applied for MS in Civil Engineering (Structural )</p>
<p>From what I know, it’s very difficult to get a TA/RA as a MS student.</p>
<p>how about other forms of financial aid?</p>
<p>Like GA, for instance, … I don’t necessarily should have experience as a teacher or a researcher…or do I? I think Graduate assistants are required to do general works…like working on autocad or something like that.</p>
