Tentative Agenda

All times are in U.S. Eastern Time (ET).

Please note that Thursday’s conference schedule has intentionally been left open throughout the morning and afternoon to allow programs the flexibility to coordinate Graduate School Visits across the Boston area. We will provide participating programs with a list of institutional points of contact who are familiar with the conference and available to assist in arranging campus visits, meetings, tours, and related opportunities for your scholars.
