The starting point
A STEM-focused New Jersey private where merit scholarships are awarded automatically at admission and range from $2,000 up to full tuition, layered with a new Fall-2026 promise of full tuition for families earning $75,000 or less.
Selection beyond grades and scores. These awards are not recorded as automatic on grades and scores. Read each award's selection rules, application steps and dates. Meeting a minimum is not an award offer.
