About G-Force
G-Force members volunteer at area high schools and work closely with 9-12th grade students to create a "college-going culture." We teach students how to enroll in any college or university.
G-Force is a registered student organization at UNT with defined roles as established by the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board as part of the College for Texans Campaign. UNT G-Force members develop and supervise Go Centers at North Texas area high schools and make regular visits to the schools to meet with students and provide college enrollment guidance and support. G-Force members work closely with high school administrators, counselors and student leaders to ensure the success of the program.
All G-Force members also hold membership in the UNT Champions of Equity and Diversity.
