graduation, but also the resources and services that will help you achieve a satisfying

assisting you with class registration or scholarship and internship applications—we are
committed to providing you the resources you need to meet your education and career
goals.
Some of the opportunities and resources available to you include the following:

continues through graduation. Take advantage of one-on-one academic
counseling with faculty, common test topic reviews, stress-management
techniques, and workshops on exam-writing strategies, organizing and
