The Rensselaer Medal - $120,000 Scholarship Opportunity

For more than 100 years, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, in conjunction with high schools around the world, has awarded the Rensselaer Medal to promising secondary school students who have distinguished themselves in mathematics and science. The Medal was first presented in 1916 with two purposes: to recognize the superlative academic achievement of young men and women, and to motivate students toward careers in science, engineering, and technology. 

This merit scholarship, with a value of $30,000 per year, is guaranteed for four years (five years for the B.Arch. program or the Co-Terminal Program) for each medalist who is accepted and enrolls at Rensselaer. As a participating medal high school, BTHS is allowed to select one member of the junior class to be honored with the Rensselaer Medal Award. 

Note: if you apply to RPI's Accelerated (Seven Year) Physician-Scientist Program, you would be awarded with the RPI Medal for the first four years (scholarship is for undergraduate only, not Medical School)
