Grad Talk
Grad Talk is a forum -modeled event, hosted by Opportunity Network, for students to speak and interact with graduate school professionals on a first-hand basis. The sessions are organized either in person or via video conference.
Our purpose for the Grad Talk series is to provide students with a valuable experience to receive feedback from the authorities who are directly involved at graduate institutions and to help them realize, with preparation and accurate information, they can make an educated decision regarding their pursuit toward a graduate degree.
