Project ExCEL
Project ExCEL is a part of the CUNY Black Male Initiative (BMI), a CUNY-wide initiative that provides men of color with services and support that contribute to academic and professional success in college. Through mentoring, academic and professional development workshops, participants are provided with a variety of opportunities to foster success. We strive to increase, encourage, and support the inclusion and educational success of underrepresented groups and all interested students, especially African-American and Latino males.
