Hub Workshop: Grad School Exploration & Prep

If you’re thinking about applying to grad school (or already have it in your plans), this workshop will outline what to consider before exploring graduate programs and institutions and preparing your application materials.

Together with Hub coaches and your peers, you’ll develop a plan towards successful admission to a grad program that fits your learning and career goals. Lastly, we will work together as a group to establish what makes a powerful and effective personal statement.

You should attend this event if you are:
- A liberal arts and/or sciences (LSA) student
- Interested in learning more about the possibility (and realities) of grad school
- Eager for insights that’ll help you determine if an advanced study is a step you want to take
- Looking for guiding criteria that will help assess if a particular grad program is aligned with your goals
- Searching for available resources to assist you through the process

What you’ll gain by attending:
- Bolster your understanding of grad and professional schools, admission requirements, and application deadlines
- Develop a strategy for identifying grad schools that meet your criteria and a plan for how to stay on top of your applications
- Discover resources available to you throughout your prep and application process
- Think through an approach to writing your personal statement or identify areas of improvement within your existing personal statement

Interaction Level: Moderate
