Mrs. Worboy's Grad Seminar class features recent SMLS grads coming back to share their experiences and wisdom concerning the university experience.  We have had the pleasure of listening to: Jessica Proctor ’07, Bisma Bhatti ’08, Rebecca Rahimi ’11, Emma Moogk ’11, Maddie Furlong ’13, Patricia Wesierski ’13, Ghazal Jessani ’14 and from the Class of 2015: Virginia Gibbins , Ruxandra Bogdan, Alexia Royal, Jillian Perrone, and Stephanie Collier.

Some important facts they shared included:
  • the need for balance with academics and social life
  • don’t be afraid to change programs
  • each university is different
  • take it one day at a time
  • prioritize what you do
  • find a good group of friends
  • make sure your professors know you
  • build your network
  • seek out academic advisors
  • stay active
  • always do your reading ahead of time and attend class
  • and most of all – you will be fine!

Our girls have found these chats to be most useful and have had the opportunity to ask questions about the universities they are interested in.
