This session will provide information and data on who goes to graduate school, what kinds of programs they enroll in, and how they pay. Data from the Department of Education reveal differential enrollment patterns by race, gender, and socioeconomic status. They also demonstrate marked differences in the extent to which different groups of students rely on loans to finance their graduate education. Financial aid professionals will discuss the ways that these demographic differences play out on their campuses and strategies for diminishing the inequality in access to graduate school opportunities.
