-income students are also more likely to take on debt than their counterparts [1], [5]. Thereis evidence that receiving financial aid is related to increased academic achievement andpersistence [5], but the precise nature of the relation between financial aid and persistence isunclear. Although student loans are readily available, receiving student loan aid had astatistically significant negative effect on persistence for high-need (Pell-eligible) students [6].Thus, it is important to examine whether scholarships - as opposed to loan aid - exert a uniqueeffect on student persistence in engineering, as a variety of programs, including federally-fundedprograms such as the NSF Scholarships in STEM (S-STEM) program, have sought to enhanceengineering

STEM transfer students exist. Programs such as summer bridge programs, mentoring,tutoring, learning communities, and other activities are fairly common at the undergraduate levelin STEM fields, and many of these programs have historically been funded by NSF STEP and S-STEM programs. Few systematic studies of interventions have been conducted, however. Localassessment data, typically published in conference papers and reports, support the efficacy of theseinterventions; however, no systematic reviews of the considerable literature have been found. Tosignificantly and positively impact representation of Hispanic scientists and engineers, we need acomprehensive synthesis to (a) develop patterns of successes and failures of Hispanic STEMtransfer
