Scheduled the week before the Fall semester begins, this event features campus tours, a resource fair, graduate welcome convocation program, and graduate program breakout sessions.
On August 23rd, CSUSM welcomed new students to the Fall 2023 semester at the 17th Annual Graduate Studies Orientation and Mixer!
Incoming graduate students with Dean De Leone
Attendees particpated in Campus Tours given by our wonderful Student Ambassadors from our Office of Recruitment and Outreach.
Campus departments and offices made themselves available at the Resource Fair to share how they support student success.
The Convocation Program was hosted by our Executive Board members of the Graduate Representatives Council and featured speakers such as Vice Provost Mary Oling-Sisay and Graduate Dean Charles De Leone.
A special highlight of the program came from our two alumni speakers who shared their
journey as graduate students and gave tips for success. Thank you Beatriz Ortiz (M.S.
Speech-Language Pathology, Class of 2021) and Stephanie Williams (M.A. History, Class
of 2021) for your time and dedication to CSUSM!
