The Graduate School at the University at Albany

Under the direction of the Dean of the Graduate School and working in consultation with the Graduate Academic Council of the University Senate, the Graduate School has responsibility for ensuring the highest standards in student admission; for providing academic records management, academic standing and degree services for currently enrolled students; and for the authorship, maintenance and oversight of graduate policy and standards that promote high quality in educational programs and curricula.

The Graduate School works with faculty, academic departments, and the Deans of the Schools and Colleges to recruit and develop a graduate student body across the disciplines and professional fields reflective of academic strength and the University’s commitment to diversity, and designs programs to support student achievement and success.
