Graduate Student Association
Clubs & Organizations
We advance the interests of the university’s 2,000 graduate students. We do this by representing their needs and supporting activities.
Get Involved with GSA
GSA seeks representation from master’s, doctoral, specialist and non-degree seeking graduate students.
The GSA has an elected president, who works 18 hours per week as a graduate assistant to lead the organization. Elections typically take place annually.
Students serving as representatives receive a Graduate Dean’s Scholarship of $250 per semester.
The GSA also contributes to the well-being of the graduate community
- Coordinating numerous social events and professional development programs.
- Developing campus and community partnerships.
- Appointing graduate students to campus committees.
- Providing general support to UNC graduate students.
Advocacy for Every Grad Student
GRADUATE STUDENT
"I have attended multiple social and professional development events put on by the GSA. These events have given me a sense of community and belonging here at UNC. I have developed friendships and professional connections I would not have if it were not for the GSA."
