Graduate Student Essentials
Student Services Team
As a current George Washington University graduate student, you have the support of a designated Student Services Coordinator within the College of Arts and Sciences. Your Student Services Coordinator will guide you throughout your tenure at GW. This person can help you navigate university policies and procedures and connect you directly to the resources you need. Your Student Services Coordinator also works in conjunction with your academic advisor to ensure you are optimizing your time here at GW. In addition, we have a dedicated Career Counselor who provides career coaching to all current CCAS graduate students.
Our team hosts a variety of social and academic programming to enhance your graduate student experience. Your Student Services Team is located on Foggy Bottom campus in the Academic Center, Smith Hall Suite 118.
