Graduate Fellowship Opportunities in the Office of Student Leadership and Involvement

The Office of Student Leadership and Involvement at Suffolk University is looking for energetic and talented candidates to fill several Graduate Fellow positions each academic year.  It is the mission of our division to assist students to successfully adjust to student life within the community of Suffolk University. Graduate Fellows play an active and critical role in supporting departmental efforts to meet this goal throughout the departments within the division.  While Suffolk does offer a Master of Education program in Administration of Higher Education, candidates will be considered from all of our nearly 50 graduate degree programs and concentrations.  Graduate fellows receive a $6200 grant and are paid $3100 for 16 hours of employment over the course of the semester. 

To be eligible, candidates must apply and be admitted to a graduate program in either the College of Arts and Sciences or the Sawyer School of Management and be enrolled full-time for the duration of their appointment. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at (617) 573-8320 or contact us directly via email at sli@suffolk.edu. 
We would like to wish you the best of luck in identifying your graduate fellowship and joining our graduate community!
