The Mellon Mays Undergraduate Fellowship Program (MMUFP) is a unique program designed to encourage, prepare, and support underrepresented students and students interested in increasing opportunities for underrepresented students, to pursue graduate studies and an academic career. The program supports specific academic disciplines where a diverse student body and faculty have traditionally not been present.
The Mellon Mays Program supports its fellows through faculty mentoring, financial support, GRE test preparation, graduate school preparatory workshops, and networking opportunities with top graduate schools in the United States. Each fellow designs and conducts an individual research project under the guidance of a faculty mentor, and receives a stipend during the summer and the academic year.
Information regarding the fellowship is available at www.usc.edu/mmuf
All applications must be received in the Ronald Tutor Campus Center (TCC), suite 425, by 4pm on Friday, February 11, 2011. Completed applications will be reviewed and qualified applicants will be selected for an interview.
