Who Can Apply:
- Attending college can completely change one’s life and set them up for success and financial stability.
- STEM is a particularly great field to pursue, offering stable and lucrative employment in growing industries. While STEM jobs have many benefits, they are also often lacking in diversity, both in terms of gender and race. Students from underserved communities often don’t have the financial means to afford higher education, closing off career opportunities and furthering the underrepresentation of minorities in STEM.
- This scholarship seeks to support students of color who need financial assistance in order to pursue their ambitions in STEM fields.
- Any BIPOC high school or undergraduate student who is from a financially disadvantaged community may apply for this scholarship if they’re pursuing computer science, mathematics, or other STEM fields.
