Some helpful information regarding your benefits!
📌
We have recently been made aware by many January intake graduate students that their plan is charged the September prior to their January start date, and terminates at the end of the Trent school year during the year of their graduation. This is an issue we are working hard to find a solution to in collaboration with various levels of the administration. Please feel free to contact us at [email protected] if you would like to discuss this further.
Join us for our virtual event, Voices and Narratives in Islamic History, featuring insightful discussion on literature, history, and cultural influence.
On Thursday, October 29th, from 6:30 PM – 8:30 PM EST
Meet our panel of speakers: Abdullah Yossofzai (Durham Librarian) and Besma Soltan (Trent PhD Student).
RSVP isn’t required! Just click the link in bio to join!
