The Graduate Studies Center offers resources and services for current CSUCI students who would like to learn more about the graduate school application process. All graduate school preparation services are available for all  undergraduate students currently enrolled through the main CI campus. Students may connect with a member of our team by securing an appointment through Dolphin Navigate. In these graduate school preparation appointments, students can receive guidance on how to prepare for graduate school, learn ways to secure funding for graduate education, and talk about ways to stand out to the admissions committee. 

Writing support services (graduate level thesis, personal statement, and cover letter writing) are housed in the Broome Library through the Writing and Multiliteracy Center.

All students, regardless of race, sex, color, ethnicity, or national origin, who are interested in graduate school preparation services are welcome to utilize our services.
