Ronald E. McNair Fellowship Applications Available

The Graduate School Diversity Office is committed to supporting the academic success of McNair Scholars pursuing graduate degrees by offering one-time fellowship awards and inviting McNair alumni to participate in our McNair Scholars Graduate Network. The Ronald E. McNair Graduate Fellowship was created to support first-year graduate students in their pursuit of a Ph.D. or master’s degree. Two $18,000 fellowships will be awarded which may qualify the student for a 100% tuition benefit. This award does not carry a service expectation and allows the McNair Graduate Fellow to transition into their graduate program, focus on their academic success, and build a support system at the University of Utah. McNair Graduate Fellows will have the opportunity to be paired with an advanced graduate student mentor (McNair alumni) to ensure a smooth transition to graduate school at the University of Utah.
