NAGPS
The National Association of Graduate-Professional Students is the umbrella group for over two million graduate and professional students currently studying in the United States. NAGPS acts as a clearinghouse for graduate and professional student organizations, serves as an advocacy group for graduate-professional student needs and rights at all levels, addresses a broad range of issues via national committees (international student concerns, human diversity concerns, legislative concerns, and employment concerns), and much more! Every fall, NAGPS hosts a national conference, and every spring, NAGPS member schools meet at regional conferences.
