Introduction to OGSAF Webinar |
Welcome new graduate students! We hope you're settling in to your new schedules and have an exciting semester ahead. We know that part of settling into life as a graduate student is having a strong understanding of the options available to fund your graduate studies. OGSAF is hosting two webinars to share more about the variety of funding opportunities GW graduate students have access to.
The content will be the same at both events so we recommend students only attend one session. These sessions will be recorded and shared on our website if you are unable to attend live.
