For High School Students Ready to be Big Thinkers

Stevens works side by side with partnering schools and dedicated staff to identify high school students who are curious and capable of excellence in STEM. Then we collaborate to design and deliver unrivaled support and resources that unleash student potential. The world is waiting for them, which is why we aim to be the bridge to achievement.

For Enrolled Students Preparing for Excellence

ACES Pre-College graduates as well as qualifying first-year undergraduates who enroll at Stevens move as a cohort to the ACES College Scholars Program, which is part of Stevens Technical Enrichment Program (STEP). Academic, financial, personal, professional and social support are provided at no-cost so that nothing holds students back from success in STEM.
