Can current seniors, or students who have already graduated with a bachelors degree, apply for the DREU?
Yes, students can participate after they have graduated. It is true, however, that in most cases we would prefer for students to participate earlier – so that the experience can help them decide if they want to go to graduate school and to help them be more competitive applicants for admission and fellowships if they do apply. Also, since the goals of the program are to encourage more students from underrepresented groups to go to graduate school in computer science and computer engineering, graduating students that are already admitted to graduate school are less likely to be funded than less advanced students who have still not decided if graduate school is for them.
