The Scholarship Podcast: Higher Education Navigation for Minoritized people is a placewhere we talk about the finances of navigating the academy for minoritized people. We’ll probably focus on graduate student funding and avoiding student loan debt, but we’ll also talk about what to do when you get to the ivory tower, navigating graduate student life, and life after grad school.

I’m your host, Nicollette Mitchell. Full time mom, full time graduate student, former administrator (for now), and full time cheerleader for minoritized people who want to navigate the academy with financial finesse.

    How I got my into my Fully Funded Doctoral Program in Education

    How I got my into my Fully Funded Doctoral Program in Education

    We are socialized to think  that talking about money is bad and that we shouldn’t talk about it.

    But money is a HUGE part of the story of higher education, especially for historically marginalized people.

    Silence around the finances of higher education keeps the academy  old, white, and rich.

    And  silence prevents marginalized people from forming communities and  developing financial finesse.

    The scholarship podcast is an intentional disruption that centers voices that are often pushed to the margins.
