McNair Program Now Accepting Applications for Next Class of Scholars

The McNair Program encourages and prepares underrepresented students (first generation and income eligible OR underrepresented group in graduate education) to pursue graduate, non-professional programs leading to a Ph.D. or research doctorate. Academic advising, faculty mentoring, graduate school visits and paid research internships are just a few of the benefits the program has to offer.

Applications will be accepted online through Oct. 1. Students who are interested in graduate school but have less than 30 credit hours should consider the Pre-McNair Fellows Program (information sheets due Sept. 8).

For more information on either program, eligibility or the application process, visit mcnair.truman.edu, call 660.785.5393 or stop by the Adair Building and visit the staff.
