New Graduate Assistant Orientation
August 27 & September 1

2:00 pm - 3:00 pm
Tuesday, September 1, 2026
4:30 pm - 5:30 pm
A warm welcome to our new graduate assistants! The Office of Graduate Student Assistantships and Fellowships (OGSAF) is hosting an orientation for new graduate assistants to connect with each other, learn more about assistantship policies and benefits, and ask questions about their upcoming appointments.
OGSAF is hosting two orientation event options; one in person and one online. The content will be the same at both events so we recommend students only attend one session.
Please note that this session is geared toward students who have already been assigned a graduate assistantship for the Fall 2026 semester.
- IN PERSON: Thursday, August 27 from 2:00-3:00pm in the University Student Center, Grand Ballroom
- VIRTUAL: Tuesday, September 1 from 4:30-5:30pm - via Zoom
Please RSVP for the orientation you plan to attend:
Light snacks and GW swag will be provided for the in person orientation event.
