What is this?

LGBTQ+ students and scholars are underrepresented and marginalized within STEM fields. Applying to graduate schools typically costs many hundreds of dollars which poses a major barrier to these students, who are disproportionately affected by economic hardship. LGBTQ+ students also may not have many sources or role models to turn to for advice when preparing their application materials for graduate school applications. The aim of the Graduate School Application Programs is to alleviate the financial burden of LGBTQ+ students and connect them with senior LGBTQ+ scientists for application feedback.
