Grove Scholars is an emerging scholars program for students who are eligible for The Ole Miss Opportunity Scholarship and are pursuing a STEM degree or health related profession at the University of Mississippi. Employing a cohort model, an incentive structure, and a summer bridge program, Grove Scholars works to close the gap between access and equity for Mississippi resident students beginning prior to freshmen year through graduation.

We define Diversity as an affirmation of the intersecting individual, social and organizational identities that make our community vibrant and transformational. As a program we are laser-focused on openly increasing, embracing and recognizing the full spectrum of diversity at all levels of our institution, and especially as pertains to the undergraduate experience at UM.
