THE GRADUATE SCHOOL

I hope you had a pleasant Thanksgiving and were able to spend some quality time with the people and activities you enjoy. This is the time in the academic cycle when TGS begins planning for the next academic year. As part of this planning, we are thinking about current and future support for graduate students and postdoctoral trainees. Some of the ways TGS currently supports graduate students in particular are outlined here.

The Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) has once again agreed to make the TGS U-Pass program optional for Winter Quarter 2023 to provide added flexibility. If you choose to opt in, your U-Pass will be activated (or issued) for the Winter Quarter and the $125 quarterly activity fee will be applied to your student account.

As part of its Experience Northwestern series, The Graduate School is raffling tickets to two Family & Friends events in October.
