McNair Program

Wesleyan’s Ronald E. McNair Post-Baccalaureate Program assists students from under-represented groups in preparing for, entering and progressing successfully through post-graduate education. Since 2007, the program has supported dozens of students many of who were first-generation college, low-income and from groups underrepresented in graduate school. The program provides guidance, research opportunities, and academic support to students planning to pursue PhDs.
