Appendix: Visiting Graduate Student Compensation Levels
For full details on Visiting Graduate Students, please visit: Non-UC Visiting Graduate Students and Chapter 10: Visiting Graduate Students
This table is based on current GSR Step Levels by Department. Under no circumstances should involvement of a VGS detract from financial support and/or resources that would be otherwise available to registered UC San Diego graduate students whether domestic or international, so this table should assist with ensuring that VGS support does not exceed that of a student in the department.
