What makes UIC special for RBL Scholars?
All RBL Scholars will participate in programming with the Office of First Year Initiatives that is nationally known for its work on student success. UIC staff in this office have deep ties to NLCP with many over the years having served as NLCP Senior Project mentors and reviewers. Their understanding and commitment to student success extends to NLCP students and especially for those who enroll at UIC.

“UIC is a culturally diverse campus and offers incoming students a better understanding of worldviews. Engagement with students of different backgrounds helps shape an individual holistically— and prepares them to enter the workforce and other culturally and racially diverse spaces.” Marla Stamps; NLCP 2015, UIC 2019
