ACS Scholars are undergraduate seniors who embody Carnegie Mellon’s high standards of academic excellence, volunteerism, leadership and involvement in student organizations, athletics or the arts. They are selected each year by their deans and department heads to represent their class in service and leadership.

The ACS Scholars Program was launched in 1975 and has recognized almost 1,300 students to date. Each scholar receives a monetary award — made possible by the generosity of ACS members — to support their academic and personal growth.

Sophie is one of only 10 ACS Scholars chosen from the College of Engineering.

Congratulations, Sophie!
