Toulouse School of Graduate Studiesstory A $310,000 grant from the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board will further UNT’s efforts to increase enrollment among first-generation college students. UNT received the most funding among the state’s 32 eligible universities. The money will be used to hire more students to work as UNT G-Force mentors at area high schools, encouraging students to graduate and go to college. With the award-winning program, UNT has made large strides toward reaching its goals for Texas’ Closing the Gaps initiative, which aims to enroll 630,000 more students in colleges and universities by 2015.
