The program covers tuition and fees, room and board, books and supplies, and miscellaneous educational expenses.

Scholars are expected to uphold values including ethics and integrity, honesty, respect for people, loyalty and reliability, entrepreneurial spirit, patriotism and dedication to community, commitment to excellence, and etiquette. Beyond financial assistance, the scholarship provides personalized support from Scholar Success Officers throughout college, a new MacBook, leadership and community-building opportunities, exclusive fellowship and internship opportunities, and career development resources.
