Scholarships for Transfer Students in Science, Engineering, and Mathematics

该项目为24名有经济需要的学生提供奖学金，这些学生从社区大学转学到霍普学院，主修生物、化学、计算机科学、工程、地质和环境科学、数学或物理。每年向八名转学生提供10 000美元的奖学金，为期三年。符合资格要求的学生可在第二年续领奖学金。每个学者都有机会参加一个夏季研究项目在希望学院在夏季之前，他们开始研究在希望。然后，他们在希望的研究通过密集的教师咨询，及时和适当的学术援助，同伴指导，职业咨询和教育，实习和研究机会，以及在S-STEM学者之间建立社区的计划。通过针对那些通常不考虑参加像霍普这样的私立文理学院的社区大学学生，该项目正在增加STEM专业的经济和种族多样性。

This project provides scholarships for 24 students with financial need who transfer to Hope College from a community college to major in biology, chemistry, computer science, engineering, geological and environmental sciences, mathematics, or physics. Scholarships of $10,000 per year are being offered to eight transferring students each year over three years. The scholarships are renewable for a second year for students who meet eligibility requirements. Each scholar is given the opportunity to participate in a summer research project at Hope College in the summer before they begin studies at Hope. They are then supported in their study at Hope by intensive faculty advising, timely and appropriate academic assistance, peer mentoring, career counseling and education, internship and research opportunities, and a program for building community among S-STEM scholars. By targeting community college students who usually do not consider attending a private liberal arts college like Hope, this project is increasing economic and racial diversity in the STEM majors.
