And finally, an announcement for our prospective students. Are you not yet a part of the DePaul English Graduate Programs but are considering applying? If so, please join us for the DePaul University Fall Graduate Open House. Faculty and staff representatives from more than 75 graduate programs will be available to talk to you about specifics of each program and answer any questions that you may have. A representative from the office of financial aid will also present an overview of the graduate financial aid process.

Programs in all of DePaul’s colleges and schools will be represented. Arrive early to hear from a panel of graduate admission directors who will answer  frequently asked questions and give an insider’s perspective to the inquiry and application process at DePaul.

The Open House will be held on Thursday, Oct. 11th, from 5:00 – 7:00 p.m. in Room 120 of the Student Center on the Lincoln Park Campus. The event is free, but you are asked to register at admevents.depaul.edu/event.aspx?id=7755
