Virtual Events

Virtual Information Sessions enable prospective students to learn about HGSE and specific programs of interest using web conference software. You have the opportunity to hear from and engage with program faculty, alumni, and/or students. The session typically involves a presentation and question-and-answer period. System requirements for the web conference software are listed at the bottom of this page.
