African Graduate Students Connect (AGSC) exists to provide a unique social, professional and academic network to promote sociocultural enrichment, academic success, and Africa-related volunteering opportunities for graduate students of African descent or of the African Diaspora.

Our intention is to foster increased camaraderie and “a spirit of community” away from home; providing motivational, mentoring and morale support in times of need; facilitating the dissemination or sharing of pertinent and valuable academic, institutional and career/employment information.
