March 20-21, 2009

The Division of Student Affairs and the Counseling, Adult and Higher Education (CAHE) graduate program are hosting a Graduate Student and Assistantship Recruitment Program (GSARP).

NIU’s collaboration between a vigorous academic program and a hands-on practical experience yields successful and effective Student Affairs practitioners. The two-day program introduces students to essential program information and introduces them to many faculty and staff members. Prospective graduate students will also be asked to interview for graduate assistantships within the Division of Student Affairs.

Participants Will Have Opportunities To:

  • Learn more about the CAHE graduate program
  • Interview for assistantship positions
  • Interact with current graduate students and candidates from around the nation
  • Meet and interact with CAHE faculty and Student Affairs staff
  • Learn more about financial aid opportunities
  • Tour the DeKalb community and the NIU campus

While there is no limit on the number of assistantshipsfor which applicants may request interviews, demand that an assistantship generates will dictate offering departments' ability to grant interviews. We will do our best to schedule applicants for as many interviews as possible.

The priority deadline for GSARP registration is March 6th. The priority deadline allows the GSARP team to make every attempt to ensure candidates receive interviews with the departments of their preference.

If you have any questions, please call 815-753-6257 or e-mail Desiree Matel-Anderson at dmatelan@niu.edu.
