Yes, I have heard of it happening at a nearby school.
Some schools give a tuition remission for masters students who do TA jobs
That also gets one enough pay to live on, barely ($1000+ monthly)
So, yes it can happen.
I am not sure if it is only schools which don’t go beyond the master’s level so therefore don’t have PhDs or not, but it can be done.
Another helpful option is to do your FAFSA early (Jan/Feb) in case the school offers work study, you could get over $5k for that and have the master’s adviser prof hire you in his or her lab.
