The Council of Graduate Schools April 15 Resolution<\/a> affirms that \u201cStudents are under no obligation to respond to offers of financial support prior to April 15.\u201d This means that if an incoming student receives a written offer of a graduate assistantship, they must not be forced to make a decision about that offer before the date of April 15. The resolution is meant to permit all students to receive and compare competing offers before being forced to make a choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

UWM is a signatory to the April 15 Resolution, and all programs with admissions cycles covered by the resolution must observe it. Note that the resolution does not apply to off-cycle admissions that do not require decisions in the most common window during spring. Students should contact the Graduate School if they believe a program is violating the April 15 Resolution.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":37709,"parent":319,"menu_order":18,"template":"","class_list":["post-448","handbook","type-handbook","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\nCouncil of Graduate Schools April 15 Resolution -
