Bay Path presents Path to Success: Graduate Open House event highlighting resources available to grad students

Longmeadow, MA- Bay Path University will host Path to Success, an open house for prospective graduate students looking to learn more about the resources and support available to Bay Path learners. The virtual event will take place on Thursday, October 17, from 6:00 to 8:00 PM.

“We developed this event specifically to share important information about the unique level of support and connection that is part of the learning experience at Bay Path,” said Jana O’Connell, the University’s Interim Senior Director of Graduate Admissions. “We have a robust, supportive community of academic advisors, career coaches, mental health staff, and financial aid professionals who help our learners thrive.”

Bay Path University offers a variety of master’s and doctorate degree programs across three academic schools, including the School of Education, Psychology & Humanities; the School of Management & Technology; and the School of Health & Natural Sciences.

“Most of our graduate students are completing their degrees online, and we want to ensure they know about the wide range of resources available to them and how to access support as online students,” O’Connell explained.

In 2021, the University was recognized by NASPA: Student Affairs Administrators in Higher Education for providing exemplary virtual student support services to undergraduate students during the pandemic, and draws on those best practices to assist graduate students.
