Ryan Sims, the Graduate Division Academic Counselor, will be available during this time for support, referrals, and tips to get you through the thesis/dissertation writing process!

Even if you can't attend the session, you are encouraged to review the above resources, contact an Academic Services staff member if you have questions, or drop in to the Graduate Division for a pre-check during our regular business hours.

The Graduate Division looks forward to helping you through this process!
