SUCCESS does not stop with just helping its students complete their undergraduate degrees but encourages students to pursue graduate education. SUCCESS coordinates Pacific's participation in the annual California Forum for Diversity in Graduate Education, held at various university/college campuses in northern California. In November 2011, students traveled by charter bus to the University of San Francisco. They attended workshops ranging from how to write a winning statement of purpose to how to finance your graduate school education. Students also visited with recruiters from over 100 of the nation's leading graduate schools. <a href="http://www.pacific.edu/success">www.pacific.edu/success</a>
