The Honors College identifies honors students to participate in the University Assistantship Program. Selected students are matched with a department or professional office of interest, providing an opportunity for them to work on special projects or research. Students in the assistantship program typically work eight hours per week for the entire academic year, earning a total stipend amount of up to $2,500. Assistantships range from helping professors with lab work associated with their research to working in instructional labs, to participating in ensemble performances—the possibilities are endless.

The University Assistantship Program is intended for incoming freshmen. However, at various points throughout the academic year, the Honors College accepts nominations of enrolled honors students from Georgia State faculty and staff members.
