Financing Graduate Education

Welcome


The Graduate School is committed to the principle that diversity in the student body enhances the intellectual experience and understanding of the entire scholarly community.  Thus, the Office of Minority Affairs & Special Programs is committed toward the recruitment, matriculation and graduation of underrepresented students into Ph.D programs.  Additionally, the office assists students who may have experienced racial and/or socio-economic barriers to doctoral education and attempts to facilitate their successful admission and matriculation to the Graduate School.

 
The services that the Office of Minority Affairs (OMA) offers is open to students and range in scope from helping students prepare competitive applications for GSAS programs to advocacy for general support that facilitates the student’s retention in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences.If you have any questions, specific concerns or would like to simply "drop-in", You are encouraged to contact the Office of Minority Affairs at (212) 854-3791, visit our office located at 102 Low Memorial Library, or e-mail us at gsasoma@columbia.edu.
