<p class="MsoNormal">The UCSF <a href="https://bms.ucsf.edu/">Biomedical Sciences (BMS) Graduate Program</a> is inviting you to an info session on 8/31 from 2-3:30pm (PST). During the session, representatives from BMS will give a short presentation about the
BMS program, the various student organizations and resources on campus that are available to our students, student life in general; what’s like to go to school at UCSF and live in SF (including a discussion on student budgets and the cost of living). Finally,
we’ll discuss how to apply to BMS (and grad schools in general). He will cover topics such as what we look for in an applicant, what drives an application, how to write a personal statement/statement of purpose, and how to write about your research experiences.
After the presentation, you will have the opportunity to join breakout rooms with students and faculty in the BMS program to discuss these topics more in depth and/or to ask questions about BMS, UCSF, and San Francisco in general.
