The program provides support to grad school applicants in the US with
their applications for fellowships and grad programs. Signup forms
for both mentors and mentees can be found at the link above. Mentors
and mentees are matched based on their research interests and
backgrounds. More information can be found on our FAQ section:

The program is volunteer based and is really valuable to the
students applying, so please consider signing up as a mentor
if you have experience with the US grad school system. Also,
please spread the word to both potential mentors and mentees. We
are happy to answer any questions, so feel free to contact
me (ravi.ranjan@utexas.edu) if you have any.
