The CALS Graduate Research Assistantship Match (GRAM) Program provides ½ of the graduate assistantship for newly recruited multicultural students accepted into programs of study in the college. This program allows students to actually enroll at ISU. Average annual support amounts to approximately $8,500 for each graduate student. The assistantship acts as a retention tool, assuring graduate students making good progress in their program of financial support until they graduate with a MS or PhD degree.
