Change to the WMU Graduate and Professional School Fair

The WMU Graduate College will no longer be hosting the annual Graduate and Professional School Fair. Instead, we are pursuing a different direction by combining efforts with the WMU Department of Career Services to promote WMU graduate school pathways through the WMU Career and Job Fairs. A separate graduate school fair will no longer be available. Thank you to the  many college and university representatives who have attended our fair throughout the years! Click here to learn more about this change.
