GF - Graduate Flat Pay

Graduate Assistants are employed by the University to teach, conduct research, or assist with administrative duties in departments and non‑academic units. Every attempt is made to assign Graduate Assistants to positions that are directly related to the student’s field of study or that provide the opportunity to develop transferable, professional skills. Graduate Assistantships are assigned in the department or unit and confirmed by the Graduate School.

The Testing Accommodations Proctor Graduate Assistant (GA) supports equitable access to assessments by coordinating and proctoring accommodated examinations. This role helps ensure timely scheduling, secure handling of exam materials, consistent proctoring practices, accurate recordkeeping in Trac Cloud, and strong communication with students, faculty, and campus partners. The GA works within established accessibility and testing policies to promote academic integrity and an accessible testing experience.

The Office of Accessibility Resources and Services (OARS) collaborates with the UNCG community to ensure campus life is accessible, removing barriers and implementing reasonable accommodations for students with disabilities. The Academic Achievement Center (AAC) — including professional staff, graduate assistants, and undergraduate students — works collaboratively toward this goal.

The AAC includes professional staff, graduate assistants, and undergraduate students who work collaboratively to accomplish division and office goals. This position will be supervised by the Coordinator for the UPL and will work primarily in the University Proctoring Lab (UPL).
