Notes from the Grad Program Information Meeting

EgO at UMass

Check out the notes from the recent graduate program information meeting hosted by the English Graduate Office entitled "Everything you ever wanted to know about the MA/PhD Graduate Program, but were afraid to ask…." The Graduate Program Director referenced a list of questions she'd received via e-mail and through conversations with students. This is by no means an exhaustive summary but hopefully it is useful in answering some of your questions. If you have additional questions or concerns, we would recommend consulting the department's website and/or talking with your advisor(s). To read more: see Everything You Wanted to Know about Graduate School.

You can also use the listserve to buy/sell, look for roommates, or request help.

The listserve is open to any English graduate student. Any user can send emails directly to the list.
