Dear All,

The message below went to selected students in CNAS today.  Major Professors will start to receive notifications as their students apply and can either approve them immediately or wait until the application closes on 10/08/2023.


  *   Major Professors will have an additional week through 10/13/23 to review and approve applications.
  *   Applications without Major Professor approval will not be visible to instructors when they review applications in May.

You are welcome to forward the TA application open message to your students in other majors.

Subject: CNAS TA Application for Life Sciences Open for Winter 2024

Dear CNAS Life Sciences Graduate Students,

Winter 2024 TA applications for courses in the life sciences (BCH, BIOL, BPSC, CBNS, ENTM,MCBL) are now available! The deadline to apply is Sunday, October 8, 2023.  The system will shut down at 11:59pm on 10/08/23 and will only reopen if we need additional applicants later in the appointment process.
** The system is down this coming weekend for maintenance from 10pm Friday, September 29 through Sunday, October 1 so we added additional days to accommodate this outage.

Please logon to http://taonline.ucr.edu to submit your application as soon as possible. Even if you submitted an application for a previous term, you are still required to log in each quarter, review or edit your course requests, and Confirm/Submit your application in order to be considered for the next term.


  *   Please discuss TAing with your Major Professor and only apply if you want to TA in Winter 2024



  *   Masters Students are encouraged to apply



  *   If you cannot find your Major Professor on the drop-down please let me or your Student Services Advisor know and we will get them added immediately so you can complete your application


  *   If you do not request any classes for Winter 2024, you will not appear on the list of potential TAs for the class.  Neither the instructors nor the TAAC members can see your application and you are unlikely to be appointed.  It is important to request all classes for which you are qualified when completing your application. This ensures that you appear for consideration to many instructors/departments.



  *   We are also concerned that students do not list all relevant previous coursework.  The committee uses previous coursework information to determine suitability to TA a particular course.  In some cases, although you did not request a specific course on your list, they will consider appointing you if you have an appropriate background.  Failure to list all prior relevant coursework can reduce your chances of appointment.



  *   The TA Online Manual has a list of materials to gather before you apply for the first time.  It is available via link from the front page of http://taonline.ucr.edu


If you have any trouble with the application or have questions, please let me know right away and I will be happy to help.

Kathy
