Pathway Scholars Program
Discover the Pathway Scholars Program, an exceptional initiative dedicated to nurturing and empowering aspiring business leaders. With a 100% graduation rate, this program is committed to recruiting and supporting students with a keen interest in business leadership.
Pathway Scholars, recognized for their exceptional academic potential and financial need, originate from South Florida high schools and represent underrepresented populations. Many of them are the first in their family on a path to graduate from college. Program funding enables Pathway Scholars to
- receive up to 4 years of financial assistance.
- live and learn on campus.
- work one-on-one with our Executives in Residence to develop leadership skills.
- gain real-world business experience through internships and professional development opportunities with NSU's esteemed career partners.
