Student Recruitment Profile
– Good to average student– Demonstrates interest or aptitude in math,
science and or technology– Agrees to attend all three days– Parent or guardian participation– Usually sophomores
– We like students who have the potential to do well in a math and science based career, and have not yet realized the “possibilities”
