Recruitment Workshop
Bring the Best and Brightest Into Your Program
All Florida Atlantic University Associate and Assistant Deans, Department Chairs, Graduate Programs Committee Members, and Graduate Program Directors and Coordinators are invited via email to this workshop.
In this Recruitment Workshop, we will dedicate time to review recruitment strategies, funding opportunities, graduate admissions updates, and marketing programs, amongst other topics that were mentioned in last year’s event feedback.
The Graduate Recruitment Workshop is held every fall semester on the Boca Raton campus. Please contact the Graduate College at gcrecruitment@fau.edu to learn more about the event.
Information Sessions
The Graduate College hosts monthly Information Sessions. Prospective students can register to attend the information sessions here. The sessions provide students with an overview of the graduate admissions process. There are presentations from the Graduate College, Testing and Evaluation, Test Preparation, and the Office of Student Financial Aid.
Open House
The Graduate Open House is an annual event that provides prospective graduate students the opportunity to meet with FAU representatives from the Graduate College, academic programs, the Office of Student Financial Aid, and other student services departments. Detailed information regarding Open House will be sent to faculty and staff in the academic programs at the beginning of each fall semester.
Graduate Fairs
The Graduate College attends Graduate and Professional Fairs throughout the state of Florida. These Graduate and Professional Fairs are held annually during the fall semester. The inquiry cards the Graduate College collects from interested students at these fairs are forwarded to the appropriate graduate programs at the University for follow up.
