February 19, 2021

Are you a first generation student with financial need? Are you interested in attending graduate school? If so, the McNair Scholars Program may be the right place for you! The program is now accepting applications for the 2021-2022 cohort.

The program, which is named after the late, great Dr. Ronald E. McNair and is usually referred to as "McNair", is designed to provide undergraduate students with effective preparation for graduate-level study through research and scholarly activities, summer internships, seminars and workshops, mentoring, and assistance with graduate school admission processes. McNair participants are either first-generation college students with financial need or members of a group traditionally underrepresented in graduate education, and have demonstrated strong academic potential.

Application deadline is March 1st.
