DIVERSITY & INCLUSIVENESS
Applications from minorities are particularly encouraged. In cases of extreme financial need, the Graduate School will consider a request for a waiver of the application fee. A letter of request for a waiver (there is no fee waiver form) and documentation of need, such as a letter from a college financial aid office, must accompany the application. In addition to the usual sources of funding available to students in the Graduate Training Program in Pharmacology, a variety of programs and fellowships are available for students from minority groups.
It is the policy of Cornell University actively to support equality of educational and employment opportunity. No person shall be denied admission to any educational program or activity or be denied employment on the basis of any legally prohibited discrimination involving, but not limited to, such factors as race, color, creed, religion, national or ethnic origin, sex, sexual orientation, age, or handicap. The university is committed to the maintenance of affirmative-action programs that will assure the continuation of such equality of opportunity. Sexual harassment is an act of discrimination and, as such, will not be tolerated.
