TRIO Student Support Services, in collaboration with the Center for Multicultural Excellence and Inclusion, invites students to attend Annual Grad School Day on April 11 from 9 a.m.-2 p.m. in the east wing of the second floor of the Jordan Student Success Building.

The event prepares students from underrepresented backgrounds for graduate school and features Metropolitan State University of Denver graduate programs as well as programs from surrounding institutions. Representatives will showcase what their programs have to offer and will provide information about funding a graduate degree and graduate-study resources.

A diverse lunch panel will include two current graduate students and two professionals who have completed their graduate degrees. Members will share their graduate-school experiences and answer questions from attending students. The lunch panel will take place in the CMEI Lounge in JSSB 237. If you are interested in attending the lunch panel, you must RSVP through the link below, as space is limited.

Representatives from various departments also will be available to answer questions about funding a graduate degree for undocumented students, the graduate admissions-application process, and writing personal and professional statements.

Participants will also be entered into a drawing to win a free laptop, and the first 100 participants will receive MSU Denver giveaways. Encourage your students to RSVP today.
