Workshops & Seminars
Despite the excitement surrounding your final semester and graduation, preparing for life after undergraduate studies can be overwhelming.
To assist you through this time, several Columbia University offices have collaborated to plan workshops and seminars that will prepare you for everything from finding your first apartment to managing your finances to launching a successful career. Known as CU: Connections, this collaboration will provide invaluable information and support as you prepare for life after graduation.
