The FIRST Tech Challenge (FTC) is an exciting robotics competition designed for high school students from grades 9-12 typically ages 14-18 and 8th grade students 13 years and older who are prepared to participate in a high school program. It offers the traditional challenge of a FIRST competition paired with an accessible and affordable robotics kit.

The FIRST Tech Challenge grew out of the existing FIRST Robotics Competition and the FIRST Robovation platform. 

The ultimate goal of FTC is to inspire young people to discover the excitement and rewards of science, technology, and engineering.

The 2010 FIRST Scholarship Opportunities are now posted.  

Currently over 92 schools or organizations throughout the country are offering confirmed FIRST scholarships to FTC students ranging in value from $500 to $149,000.  As of now, this is more than $6 million in scholarship funding for FTC students.  We are still waiting for a few schools to update their 2010 Scholarship offerings.  These listings are labeled “Not Yet Confirmed”.  

Seniors:  Note that the following schools have Dec 1st deadlines coming up (these are the earliest):

Olin College of Engineering   - this is valued at $80,000
University of Southern California   - this is $5,000 a year renewable for up to 4 years
University of Texas-Austin 

Juniors: There are a handful of scholarships available to Juniors - check out the listing

Team Contact:  Please help get FIRST Scholarship information into the hands of students, parents and guidance counselors.  There are additional materials to help you do this on the new FIRST Scholarship Resources for Mentors and Coaches webpage
