Scholarship Description
NACME’s Company-Affiliated Partners Scholarship (CAPS) program is designed as a complement to the NACME Scholars Program—the centerpiece of our student support strategy. It is a direct response to inquiries from companies eager to support minority engineering undergraduates at institutions where NACME is currently not a partner.This program is a fee-based scholarship management service in which a corporation underwrites part of the annual tuition and fees of African American, Latino, or American Indian students admitted for engineering study at the baccalaureate level. The sponsoring company can stipulate how the resources shall be distributed and over what duration, subject to approval by NACME and the enrolling institution.The resulting “NACME-company Scholars” shall be so designated and publicized. Performance requirements, i.e., basic academic and financial data, will be reported annually to NACME, who in turn, will issue a report to the company donor on the progress of the Scholars in the context of national enrollment, retention, and graduation trends.CAPS is not a capacity-building program like the NACME Scholars Program. Since the company is investing in the institution of its choice, typically for reasons of geography and disciplinary specialization, NACME is simply facilitating the process on behalf of the company. While the institution’s capability to support student success may be unknown, NACME is prepared to help the recipient institution develop the mechanisms that contribute to success. NACME is organized to create efficiencies in program administration and fiscal management. Our data management system is a secured, transaction-oriented website that allows for efficient and useful monitoring, analysis, and feedback for the client while focusing on the individual student participants.NACME scholarship management service currently administers and supports: * Alfred P. Sloan Minority Ph.D. program, providing application review/selection and confirmation, award notification, disbursement of payments, and data management at over 30 institutions.
