Our Keller BLOOM participants have already proven their academic and extracurricular prowess; the scholarship is awarded to a student who has shown the ability to overcome personal or financial challenges, received excellent letters of recommendation, and demonstrates a passion for science.
Students eligible to receive the Keller Scholarship will: have been a participant of the previous year's Keller BLOOM Program; be a high school senior at the time of application; be enrolled in a college/university program for the academic year following the award; and intend to major in one of the STEM fields.
