Welcome to the Scholars Institute Fellows Program!
Our programs work to provide mentorship, programming, and support to all Princeton undergraduate students, particularly those from first-generation and/or lower-income backgrounds. We offer a weekly mentorship group structure, co-curricular programming in the form of different workshops and events, and a variety of field trip opportunities to our participating SIFP fellows.
Our Mission
The Scholars Institute Fellows Program (SIFP) offers mentorship, academic enrichment, and a welcoming scholarly community to all students at Princeton. The program offers students support as they navigate the particular academic and social environment at Princeton, so many students who are first in their family to attend college, hailing from lower-to-moderate income backgrounds, coming from military service, or transferring from a different college participate.
The Experience
SIFP Fellows are part of a larger first-generation community of peers, staff and faculty at the University. The SIFP experience is comprised of monthly mentorship group meetings, co-curricular workshops, a summer enrichment experience and fun extracurricular activities!
