- What is Residency?
- To learn more about the purpose of our residencies please visit our residency site.
|
- Is it mandatory that I attend all of the residencies?
- Residencies are mandatory for all doctoral students, but are optional for master’s students.
|
- How much time do I need to allocate for residency?
- It would be best for doctoral students to allocate approximately six days for residency (excluding days for travel). Master’s students should allocate three days.
|
- How much does it cost?
- All doctoral students are responsible for their own lodging, travel arrangements and incidental expenses. (Please note: Cohorts 2008 and 2007 doctoral students' accommodations are covered by GLE per prior contractual agreements.) New doctoral students are encouraged to stay at The Founders Inn & Spa and may receive a reduced "Regent" rate; however, rooms at this rate are limited and are only available on a first come, first served basis. GLE will provide all meals through the Regent Ordinary on campus.
Information regarding residency expenses for master’s students is forthcoming.

- Can I bring my spouse and family?
- First-year students are welcome to bring their families with them. Students should plan, however, to use non-class time and evenings for research, writing and meeting with other students.
