The TRIO Ronald E. McNair Scholars Program is now accepting applications to complete our 2020-21 cohort and we would like to ask for your assistance in identifying applicants. TRIO McNair is a federally-funded program designed to increase the number of students from underrepresented groups who go on to graduate studies leading to the completion of their doctoral degree.
The application and all materials are due on March 31st. Our application is now available online and as a downloadable file. As a part of the application, we have now included an eligibility checklist to assist students in determining their initial eligibility* for the program (*does not guarantee acceptance).
Attached you will find the promotional materials, the application, and the faculty recommendation form. Please feel free to share this information with faculty, staff, and students. More information and application materials are available on our website: https://trio.dasa.ncsu.edu/mcnair-scholars-program/future-mcnair-scholars/ or https://trio.dasa.ncsu.edu/mcnair-scholars-program/future-mcnair-scholars/application-guidelines/
