Graduate School Recruiters

There are two main ways that graduate and professional schools gain access to Emory students for recruiting purposes: Arranging a campus visit and attending Emory’s annual Graduate School Fair.
Arranging A Campus Visit
To arrange a campus visit for graduate/ professional program recruiting, please complete one of the following reservation forms:

 

Health Program Visit Request
Law or Graduate School Program Visit Request

 

Representatives are encouraged to contact our office at least 2 weeks in advance of the intended visit to allow ample time for logistical arrangements and marketing efforts to be made. A few suggestions for visiting Emory students:

  • Evening programs tend to have better attendance than daytime programs due to students’ class schedules. It is also more difficult to secure a room location during the day due to classes being in session. Sessions beginning after 5:00 p.m. will have a better turnout.
  • Visits that are scheduled close to exam periods and school breaks may not have strong attendance. Please consult with a Career Center staff person to check your preferred date with our school calendar.
  • For most direct advertising, please furnish an electronic flyer to us that can be sent to our student email lists. This ensures that news of your visit will be mass-marketed to Emory’s undergraduate students. Flyers should be provided electronically to rodia.vance@emory.edu for law and graduate programs or charles.collier@emory.edu for pre-health programs.

Graduate School Fair
Emory’s annual Graduate School Fair is held each fall semester. It is an excellent opportunity to get up close and personal with Emory’s dynamic student population and engage with students who are primed to hear more about graduate and professional school programs. In addition, Emory’s fair is open to students at other Atlanta area schools that do not host their own graduate fairs, including Georgia Tech, Agnes Scott, and others. This open-access policy allows you the opportunity to tap multiple schools in one stop.

The date for the 2010 fair will be published in May, 2010 after coordination efforts with other Georgia schools are resolved. Due to space limitations, Emory’s fair always fills up. Therefore, interested programs are advised to register and submit payment early. To be placed on our email list to receive notification when registration opens, please send an email to rodia.vance@emory.edu with your name, your program name, and the email address you would like to be used for the notification.
