Students at NYU’s Robert F. Wagner Graduate School of Public Service are not among those affected by numerous McNair scholarship program cancellations across U.S. universities, despite the school housing the program. At NYU, the McNair scholarship covers 50% of tuition for two program alumni that are pursuing a Master of Urban Planning or Master of Public Administration at NYU Wagner. “No students at Wagner are affected by the changes,” Wagner spokesperson Robert Polner told WSN in a statement. The McNair program currently serves more than 6,000 first-generation, low-income and racially underrepresented students for graduate studies across 206 U.S. universities. McNair program funds have been frozen at Murray State University and are at risk of a shut down at the Vermont State Colleges System.
