If you have questions about our programs, please contact Jason Vignone, Director of Graduate Admissions and Retention.  For information about Graduate Studies policies or procedures, please visit Dr. Andrae Marak, Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, Graduate Studies, and Chair of the Graduate Council, at his faculty directory page.

Excellence in Graduate Studies is cultivated in part by the Graduate Council.  The G.C. is a consultative body comprised of passionate, dedicated faculty and staff from throughout the university, who develop, research and recommend policy with the core values of academic excellence, educational opportunity and diversity at the forefront.  For a closer look at the scope and character of Graduate Studies, you may review GSU Policy 16 here.  Additionally, you may review the Graduate Capstone Handbook here.
