The college is a minority-serving institution located in a metro area with high ratesof concentrated poverty and low levels of educational attainment. Through the programscholarships are awarded to cohorts of students majoring in engineering selected each fall semesterfrom applications collected the previous spring. After completing transfer preparation curriculumat the two-year college, select scholars who transfer to the local four-year university may remainin the program for continued support.

In our third year of the project, we report some of the formative assessment of thescholarship program. Currently our students are in their 2nd and 3rd years in various engineeringprograms at a 4-year university. We find some interesting differences between our two cohorts ofPEEPS, in terms of their transition from high school to college, their subsequent performance incollege, and the interactions among and across the cohorts. While our cohort sizes are quitesmall, we are able to delve deeper into understanding individual student’s experiences andperspectives through surveys, periodic
