[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You could consider disability insurance rather than breaking the program rules and putting your daughter’s education at risk. [/quote] They can request to be allowed to work from their program advisor, and up to 10 hours weekly might be approved. Tutoring, say, advanced math or physics 4 hours weekly would not be a problem. And private disability insurance policies generally require you to be working full time; graduate students technically aren't "working", that's why they aren't "paid". Instead of a salary, they get a stipend (which doesn't count as income, which is why they don't contribute to Social Security or Medicare or unemployment.) [/quote]
