So I got accepted into the OTD program that I was really wanting and shortly after was awarded a full time graduate assitantship position that pays full tuition plus a monthly stipend (which ends up paying for my whole rent). The position involves 20 hours/week of research and teaching work in the nursing department (random, I know). I was wondering if anyone had experience with balancing a GA position with a rigorous program like that. I definitely don't want my grades to suffer, but I find it hard to refuse such a great financial opporunity. Free tuition AND rent?- sounds too good to be true. Opinions?
