​The goal of Gettysburg College STEM Scholars Program is to increase and diversify the number of talented STEM majors who go on to contribute to the advancement of knowledge in a broad range of scientific endeavors, either by entering the STEM workforce or a STEM-related graduate program upon graduation from Gettysburg College.

To honor and recognize the importance of excellent teaching, McDaniel College offers a scholarship of up to $120,000 ($30,000 annually) to the children of K-12 and community college educators who have at least four years of current employment in a school setting and are eligible for full-time benefits at their institutions. Any service in a K-12 school or community college qualifies as long as the employment is directly through the school or college — teachers, counselors, nurses, support staff, administrators — at least four years of service equals recognition with up to a four-year scholarship, based on the student’s status as freshman or transfer.

The Penn State Millennium Scholars Program  is designed for high-achieving Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) students who will become leaders in their chosen fields and who are committed to increasing the diversity of professionals in STEM-related disciplines. Millennium Scholars are students with both the passion and the ability to advance the frontiers of knowledge and change the world.

Abele Scholars at Ursinus College are high-achieving students with demonstrated financial need (EFC of $20,000 or below) who both understand the value of a liberal arts education and desire in-depth study of a major that aligns with their passion and prepares them for success in business, government or the nonprofit sector. To be eligible, students must live in PA, NJ, DE or MD.

Former Lehigh President Alice P. Gast believed deeply in advancing women in STEM careers. As a result, she established a fund to support the ambitions of young women interested in pursuing a Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) field at Lehigh. The awardee is provided with annual support of $12,500 for tuition and research-related activities in STEM fields. Continued enrollment in a STEM field and a grade point average of 3.0 are required to maintain this scholarship. All full-time admitted undergraduate students will be considered by the Committee on Admissions.
