Graduate Admissions can provide access to the McNair Scholars program, an excellent source of exemplary students for graduate recruitment.
The Ronald E McNair Postbaccalaureate Achievement Program helps prepare eligible participants for doctoral studies through involvement in research and scholarly projects. Participants are typically from a disadvantaged background, generally from underrepresented segments of society, and have strong academic potential.
Graduate Admissions actively recruits at the McNair regional conference each summer, and routinely waives application fees. If you are interested in recruiting McNair participants for your program, contact Maryanne Maree-Sams, MaryanneMaree-Sams@uncc.edu or 704-687-7243. Maryanne maintains access to a database of McNair Scholars.
Please note: The fee waiver must be requested by the applicant prior to submitting the application for admission. To request a waiver, applicants should contact Maryanne directly, and forward their letter of participation in the McNair Scholars program.
