Graduate Student Service Announcements Email

Compiled by the Coordinator for Graduate Student Life, the announcements are distributed through the University of Maryland's MegaMail system. These announcements are from University administrative offices regarding services and resources available to graduate students. Those who have recently graduated from the University or are no longer graduate students will be automatically rolled off as a recipient within six weeks after their graduate student status has been terminated. If you have questions about these announcements, contact the Coordinator for Graduate Student Life at 301-314-9544 or via email by selecting the link above. |
