Annapolis Graduate Institute Campus Convening Weekend

The Annapolis Graduate Institute’s Spring 2025 Campus Convening Weekend will be held on Friday, March 28–Saturday, March 29. Attendance at two such weekends (or studying for at least one semester on-campus) is required for those completing the Low-Residency degree, and we envision the weekends as events for the entire Graduate Institute community. Academic and social activities are open to GI students, faculty, staff, and alumni unless otherwise indicated, and are planned to help us get to know one another as a community of learners–whether we are current students or alumni, whether we attend classes in-person or online.

The full Spring 2025 Campus Convening Weekend schedule will be released in advance of the event. Below is the schedule from the Fall 2024 Campus Convening Weekend.
