Inspiration Sponsorship: $2,000
Visionary Sponsorship: $3,000
Amplify Your Visibility, Support Graduate Diversity
The California Forum for Diversity in Graduate Education offers a unique opportunity to reach hundreds of high-achieving and motivated students who are actively exploring graduate opportunities. In addition to tabling at the Graduate School Fair, your institution can take its outreach to the next level through a strategic sponsorship.
In a single day, the Diversity Forum convenes hundreds of students from across California, many that are first-generation, low-income, or from communities historically underrepresented in higher education. These students are searching not just for programs, but for institutions that see them, support them, and invest in their success. By becoming a sponsor, your institution signals its values and increases its visibility in meaningful ways:
- Digital Visibility: Your logo or wordmark will appear on the Diversity Forum's official website and mobile app, seen by students, staff, and faculty statewide.
- Brand Recognition: With limited sponsorship slots available, your brand will stand out among peer institutions and remain visible before, during, and after the event.
- Mission Alignment: Sponsorship affirms your commitment to equity, access, and representation in graduate education—values at the heart of the Diversity Forum’s mission.
