Applying to Graduate and Professional Studies Workshop – Part 1: What Do I Need to Know?

Thinking about graduate school or professional studies? Getting ready to apply? Not sure where to start? Career Services is here to help! This session is open to both current students and alumni regardless of your career goals and where you are at in the exploration or application process.

During this workshop, you will learn about:

• Things to consider before applying to graduate school or professional programs
• How to research/compare schools and requirements
• Key timelines for applying (hint: it’s earlier than people think!)
• How to decide which offer to accept when there are multiple offers
• How Career Services can help you with the consideration of graduate schools or professional programs
