NASPA Graduate Associate Program (GAP)

Initially envisioned by 2009 NASPA summer interns Jimmy Doan and Danielle Howard, the NASPA Graduate Associate Program (GAP) is an initiative to increase leadership opportunities of graduate students within NASPA. NASPA GAs work collaboratively with other GAs throughout the world to become another communication conduit for NASPA events, publications, and programs offerings within a campus community. Associates also have the opportunity to serve on an unofficial graduate student council, providing another perspective for NASPA student membership. Please view the full position description and requirements for more information.  

The benefits of becoming a NASPA GA are numerous. Aside from becoming more knowledgeable about your professional association and networking with other graduate students, all NASPA GAs will receive recognition on the NASPA website, a complimentary copy of Beginning Your Journey: A Guide for New Professionals in Student Affairs (Third Edition), and a chance of receiving one of the four NASPA GAP conference packages (complimentary registration and three hotel nights at the annual conference).

All application materials must be received by August 4, 2011. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Nathan Victoria, assistant director of educational programs and social media, at nvictoria@naspa.org, @NASPAtweets, or 202-265-7500, x1163.
