These scholarships support low- income students who are majoring in math, computer science, or any engineering discipline. The overarching goal of the program is to help low- income students in the targeted disciplines to successfully complete a stage within the degree program which is documented as a point of unusually high attrition at the Unviersity of Rochester. The program aggressively supports and retains low-income students within the first and second years, leading up to the declaration of the major during the second semester of sophomore year. The Program seeks at least a 50% participation rate for women and members of minority groups. Unique learning communities of small groups of first and second year students are established in each of the targeted disciplines. Each learning community is guided by a graduate student, and meets weekly for study, enrichment activities, and group- building events. The full group of scholarship recipients meets on a monthly basis with members of the Steering Committee. Each student recieves intensive support services aimed at keeping the student in the major.

这些奖学金支持主修数学、计算机科学或任何工程学科的低收入学生。该计划的总体目标是帮助目标学科的低收入学生成功完成学位课程的一个阶段，这在罗切斯特大学被记录为异常高的流失率。该计划在第一年和第二年积极支持和留住低收入学生，直到大二下学期宣布专业。该方案寻求妇女和少数群体成员至少50%的参与率。在每个目标学科中建立了一年级和二年级学生小组的独特学习社区。每个学习社区由一名研究生指导，每周开会进行学习、丰富活动和小组建设活动。全体奖学金获得者每月与指导委员会成员会面。每个学生都得到强化的支持服务，旨在保持学生的专业。
