Graduate Student Visitation Program

The College of Arts, Sciences and Engineering and the Medical School at the University of Rochester will be hosting a two-day visitation program on September 24-25th 2009, targeted towards seniors who are low-income, first-generation college, or members of underrepresented minority groups, and who have expressed an interest in graduate training in the fields in which the University of Rochester offers a Ph.D.
