Prospective Graduate Student Day is designed to inform you about our internationally respected academic departments, inspire you with our robust opportunities to enrich your education, and introduce you to our diverse community of students, faculty and staff.
"I was struggling to choose between schools, but visiting Michigan gave me the clarity I needed. I was able to check out the school, lecture halls, and library, and I even got the opportunity to connect with faculty, staff members, and current students. Being able to learn about the program in person gave me so much more insight than I could have gotten remotely. Attending Prospective Graduate Student Day was crucial to my decision-making process."
- Ashley Rapp, current MPH student
