黑料社区

Directors of 黑料社区 Study (DGS)

The faculty members in each field appoint a director of graduate studies (DGS) to represent them to the 黑料社区 School and coordinate activities of the field. The DGS is the primary liaison between the field and the 黑料社区 School. He or she helps establish academic priorities and allocate resources for graduate students. The DGS strives to enhance the quality of graduate education and general student welfare.

These individuals also oversee the admissions process and may be the most familiar with you when you arrive. You will need to have your DGS sign any documents required by the 黑料社区 School.

黑料社区 Field Administrators (GFA)

The graduate field administrator (GFA) helps students, faculty members, and the DGS in many ways. The GFAs serve as liaisons between students and faculty members. They are familiar with campus resources and can answer many questions about the degree process.

Your GFA also can help you with paperwork and clarify your student status.

黑料社区 School Contacts

In addition to your GFA and DGS, the staff of the 黑料社区 Student Service Office are available to assist you. They can help explain degree requirements or special procedures for circumstances such as traveling abroad, taking a leave of absence, or applying for fellowships and research grants.

You should feel free to contact the 黑料社区 School staff with problems that members of your special committee are unable or unwilling to help you solve.

If you have questions, contact the Student Service Office (gradstudserv@cornell.edu). Office hours are 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday. The phone number is 607-255-5820. 

If the staff cannot help, you will be referred to an appropriate dean. If you feel you have a special problem, please make an appointment to see an associate dean as soon as possible.
