Change can be difficult, especially when you’re faced with major milestones like graduation. So, this week I want to encourage all of our seniors who will be leaving Athens this May to make the transition easier and plan ahead!

  • Apply for graduation! The deadline is Feb. 19.
  • Talk with your faculty and advisors to ask about references. You’re going to need them!
  • Attend this week’s College of Arts & Sciences Career and Networking Week events.
  • Finalize your resume and cover letter with Kacey Schaum (schaum@ohio.edu), who now welcomes you during Walk-In Coaching on Wednesdays, 9-11 and 1-4, in Wilson Hall Administration.
  • Attend the Career and Internship Fair, Feb. 14.
  • Start/continue applying to jobs or graduate/professional schools.
  • Organize any important papers and documents that you want to keep from your classes.
  • Start figuring out your post-graduation living arrangements.
  • Be sure to have a support system of family and friend in place.
  • Confirm your commencement plans.
  • Start checking off your Athens Bucket List!
