Undocumented, First-Generation College and Low-Income Student (U-FLi) Center

U-FLi Graduate Student Initiative

The Graduate Student Initiative (GSI) of the Undocumented, First Generation College, and Low-Income Student (U-FLi) Center fosters a sense of community among graduate, medical, and professional students at Brown University.

We recognize the importance of intersectional community building, engaged learning, and ongoing support for the holistic success of our U-FLi graduate students. Through programming and general advising, the GSI aims to cultivate a more welcoming environment for graduate students to flourish.
