American Indian Graduate Center Fellowship
American Indians continue to be the least represented of all minority groups in the country in medicine, business, law, science and other fields requiring advanced degrees. AIGC was founded to help open the doors to graduate education for American Indians, and to help tribes obtain the educated Indian professionals they need; to become more self-sufficient and exercise their rights to self-determination.
