About LVDP

La Vida Dominican Postbaccalaureate (LVDP) supports all graduate students in preparation for, and throughout their time at Dominican. Our team works to enhance graduate culture by reinforcing an inclusive and welcoming campus for students, while promoting successful degree completion and preparation for post-graduation pursuits. A range of student services are available to students through La Vida’s Graduate Resource Center, including those related to:

• Academic Support

• Mentorship and Integrative Coaching services

• Opportunites to connect with graduate students from other programs & LVDP team members

• Support with your Dominican Experience throughout

  • • Fieldwork (including internships, clinical/applied placements, etc.)

    • Professional and Career Development (e.g., building a public resume, digital portfolio, etc.)

    • Completing your Culminating Project or Signature Work toward the end of your program (e.g., thesis, dissertation, final project, etc.) and preparing to present this work at conferences and to prospective employers

Additionally, alongside all of Dominican’s other Financial Aid awards and offers, LVDP offers select direct financial support opportunities specifically for graduate students with financial need through a limited number of competitive scholarships and assistantships. The Graduate Scholarships and Grants webpage is a great place to learn about how Dominican helps fund graduate student learning, but we always suggest that all students consult the Financial Aid Office to learn more about Graduate Tuition and Aid.  You can contact financial aid via email finaid@dominican.edu and phone (415) 257-1350.
