A Message to Prospective Students
The TOPS Program is a unique opportunity available to incoming freshman and BCCC transfer students majoring in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) at Towson University. Students selected to participate in TOPS may be eligible to receive the benefits of:
- Scholarship awards ranging from $1000-$3500 a year with the possibility of renewal for all four years.
- A built in peer group with guidance from upper classman to help navigate the adjustment to college life and academic expectations.
