Virginia Commonwealth University and J. Sargeant Reynolds Community College are cooperating to provide scholarships at both institutions for undergraduate students majoring in biomathematics, computer science, engineering, mathematics, and pre-engineering. The program is enabling students from low income families and first generation college attendees to have access to higher education. The result of the cooperation is a seamless transition for the community college students transferring to join the junior level cohort. Contributing to the 95% degree completion rate among the scholarship holders are the individualized contracts that each of the scholars develop in conjunction with the individual's advisor. Another feature of the program is the problem solving workshop being designed exclusively for the S-STEM cohorts that accompany the three course calculus sequence.

弗吉尼亚联邦大学和J. Sargeant Reynolds社区学院正在合作，为生物数学、计算机科学、工程、数学和预工程专业的本科生提供奖学金。该项目使来自低收入家庭的学生和第一代大学生有机会接受高等教育。合作的结果是社区大学生转入初级队列的无缝过渡。奖学金获得者中95%的学位完成率的贡献是每个学者与个人顾问共同制定的个性化合同。该计划的另一个特点是专门为S-STEM学生设计的解决问题的研讨会，这些学生将伴随三门课程的微积分序列。
