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 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.
