		<description><![CDATA[<p><span>Are you thinking of pursuing a graduate or professional degree after graduation?&nbsp; In this session, we will explain what Academic Advancement Programs (AAP) offer, including services, programs, and meaningful resources for researching and applying intentionally to graduate and professional programs. Attendees will learn how AAP can support them to become competitive applicants and empower them in their academic pursuits through Belonging, Engaging, Achieving, and Meaning (BEAM). Additionally, we will address the question of "what's next" after participation in these programs and how to capitalize on the skills and experiences gained to further advance your academic and career goals and pursue them successfully.</span><span>&nbsp;</span></p>]]></description>
