On Sat. April 5, University of California, Irvine will host the California Forum for Diversity in Graduate Education.
There will be a bus departing from CSUSM to UCI available to students signed-up to attend the event.
Although the forum is free, the Career Center requires a [checks only] $20 deposit to reserve a spot on the bus. The bus will leave promptly at 7 a.m. and return at approximately 6:00 p.m.
The forum is held twice yearly - once in Southern California, and once in Northern California. It is designed to provide students from underrepresented groups with the tools and information to help them apply and be accepted to graduate schools.
Some benefits of attending the forum include meeting representatives from over 100 of the nation's elite graduate schools and getting free access to the Princeton Review's online prep course for the Graduate Record Examination (GRE).
There are also many workshops designed to cater to specific areas of study, a few include: nursing, physical sciences and mathematics, and fine and performing arts. There will also be workshops designed to provide more general information about topics such as selecting and applying to graduate schools.
Another important subject that will be covered is the issue of securing funding for graduate school.
To take advantage of the opportunity, contact the Career Center at (760) 750-4900 or visit the website at http://www.csusm.edu/careers/.
