Georgia State University’s new Center for the Advancement of Students and Alumni into Graduate School and Professional Programs (CASA) serves as an institutional hub that supports the progression of students from all backgrounds into Ph.D. programs, medical school, law school, or related pathways. We note that some students might want to earn a master’s degree before entering Ph.D. or medical school programs, and we aim to support those transitions as well. Ultimately, the center will help to develop a diverse population of leaders in academic and professional positions in the U.S. and beyond.
