What is a
GRAD Session?
A GRAD Session
is a group session of twelve students led by Arts and Sciences
Academic Advisers. During the session students review their
academic history, determine the degree requirements already
completed and the requirements remaining, design a schedule of
the remaining courses to be completed in the last semester(s),
and complete the paperwork necessary to apply for graduation.
Attendance is mandatory for all students intending to graduate
with a degree from the Colleges of Arts and Sciences.
At GRAD
Sessions an A&S academic adviser will clarify:
- The total
number of credits you must earn to graduate with a degree
from the Colleges of Arts & Sciences.
- The number of
Arts and Sciences credits you must earn for an A&S
degree.
- The number of
non-introductory credits you need to graduate.
- The number of
writing-intensive courses you need to graduate.
- What the GPR
requirements are.
- What happens
when you repeat a course.
- The number of
practicum credits applicable towards your degree.
- The number of
directed reading credits applicable towards your degree.
- The Arts
& Sciences program requirements you must fulfill for
graduation.
Who should
sign up for a GRAD Session?
Arts and
Sciences Seniors who intend to graduate within the next two

When
should a student attend a GRAD Session?
