Purple, are you talking about for Master’s or PhDs? There is a huge difference. Many top schools only offer Master’s on their way to a PhD so that is funded- but only because you’re in a PhD program.

I am in a Master’s program at a top school and no, funding is not the norm. The vast majority of us have very little to no funding. Yes, Master’s students can apply for GSI positions but only after all PhD students that need the positions get them (leaving very, VERY few)
