Higher Ed Hello
Welcome, and Hearty Maine Hello! The University of Maine’s Higher Ed Hello is an opportunity for students who have been newly admitted to the Higher Education Master’s Program to learn more about the program and to interview for Graduate Assistant positions at UMaine.

During this immersive experience, you’ll dive deep into the heart of our campus community, moving beyond the classroom to see exactly where your journey as a student affairs professional begins. The event is designed to foster genuine connections and professional growth. It’s more than just an interview – it’s your first step into a holistic network of mentors and peers dedicated to shaping the future of higher education. Higher Ed Hello will take place on Friday, February 27th, 2026.
Most positions are funded, in part, via federal work study. The vast majority of candidates, by virtue of their status as graduate students, will qualify for work study. Given this, candidates are strongly encouraged to apply for all positions in which they have an interest.
