New Online Resource for Graduate School-Bound African Americans

A new online resource for black and other minority students who are considering graduate education has been established. GradPortal.org offers a wide variety of information on graduate programs, funding opportunities, and preparation for graduate school. In addition, the site includes Web blogs written by minority students which detail their experiences in graduate education, demonstrating that they are succeeding and how they cope with problems they encounter along the way. The bloggers post entries several times a week on a wide variety of topics that are of particular interest to minority students.
