Academic Investment in Math and Science (AIMS)

The four-year AIMS program begins with an intense, five-week residential summer program primarily stressing mathematics before students matriculate to the university. They then attend special, graded AIMS seminars the first year, participate in undergraduate research, are mentored by faculty, and may receive preparation for the Graduate Record Exam and the Medical College Admission Test. Starting their first academic year, students are awarded a 4-year academic scholarship of $1,500 that increases annually by $500 increments if one remains in good academic standing. The program has seen significant impact on retention and academic success.
