Closing the GAAP is a volunteer-based, student-run program that provides assistance to applicants from communities historically underrepresented in higher education and the real estate industry.
Applicants are paired with a graduate student who can provide feedback on an application material of their choosing (Resume/CV; Statement of Objectives; Portfolio/Work Sample) to help create a stronger application.
