Graduate assistantships
Paid graduate assistants are required to be in-person and local to SUNY Cortland’s campus.
Other considerations for non-New York state residents
The M.A. program will appeal to social studies teachers in search of a graduate degree that they can earn from anywhere. Similar to New York, states such as Connecticut and Maryland require a master’s to teach social studies at the high school level. This program fulfills that requirement.
Non-New York state residents should ensure that they can work around Eastern Standard Time when necessary, especially when turning in assignments, virtually meeting with instructors and collaborating with peers.
