Pre-Graduate School Advising in the Office of College Advising strives to support the overall mission and objectives of the University of Southern California.  We are committed to students' education and development, and most importantly, to serve as part of a genuinely supportive community.

Pre-Graduate School Advising serves all current students and alumni at the University of Southern California who are considering graduate school.  We offer a wide variety of advising services to guide students through the academic and administrative processes necessary to achieve their goals. The Pre-Graduate School Advisors support students through logistical elements involved in the application process, assist in the composition and review of personal statements, provide students the tools to conduct successful preparatory research, offer students resources for test preparation, and work with students to locate resources for funding. Pre-Graduate School Advising is dedicated to helping students become self-directed learners who can assume a significant role in their pre-professional education.

Pre-Graduate School Advising emphasizes the importance of personal and professional growth and encourages students to take initiative during their pursuit of graduate programs.
