Pipeline Scholarship Program

The Consortium

Purchase College, SUNY, in collaboration with Dutchess Community College, IBM, Orange Community College, Rockland Community College and Westchester Community College, and funding from the National Science Foundation has established a Pipeline Scholarship Program for economically disadvantaged students that will enable them to attain careers or advanced degrees in Mathematics, Computer Science and Technology.

About the Program

The consortium's scholarship program reflects the national need to substantially increase the number of American high technology workers, especially those citizens who are underrepresented in the field. We are committed to supporting qualified students to attain their goals by providing financial support in the form of full-tuition scholarships, academic support, career counseling and research and internship opportunities. Qualifying students can expect to continue receiving the scholarship as long as they are making satisfactory progress towards their degree.

For Whom

To be eligible a student must

  • be a full-time student at one of the participating institutions, majoring in Mathematics, Computer Science, or a related Technology area
  • have a GPA of 2.5 or greater (lower level students) or 3.0 or greater (upper level students). (Freshman must have a high school average of 90 or greater and SAT scores of 1200 or better)
