Welcome to the Graduate Student Association!

 

New Graduate Student Orientation

SDSU will be hosting a Virtual Graduate Student Orientation on Wednesday, July 22, 2020. Although this is primarily targeted to incoming graduate students, many current students may benefit from attending. The virtual orientation will begin with a live welcome session hosted by the Interim Dean of Graduate Affairs and GSA representatives, and you will hear from a panel of your peers. After the live event, you will have access to orientation modules to learn more about different units and services at SDSU. The modules will cover campus resources such as financial aid, how to start your thesis, and more!

The Virtual Graduate Student Orientation is scheduled from 9:30am - 12pm on July 22nd. In order to attend, please RSVP no later than 11:59PM on July 14th. You will receive a confirmation email with more details just before the event.

You can also contact the Graduate Student Association (GSA) at gsa@sdsu.edu for any questions about the event.

 

Who is GSA?
  • Provides an outlet for discussion of issues of concern to graduate students and to advocate for their rights and interests.
