ROCHESTER — Andrew Garbutt of Gasport received the Nathaniel Rochester Society Scholarship from the Rochester Institute of Technology.
Andrew, son of Scott and Karen, is a third-year student in the networking and system administration program in RIT's B. Thomas Golisano College of Computing and Information Sciences.
The NRS Scholarship program is made possible by the Nathaniel Rochester Society, RIT's leadership-level donors. This unique merit scholarship was created in 1991 to recognize RIT undergraduate students for outstanding achievement. The program now encompasses more than 26 separate scholarships and is funded through hundreds of annual leadership donations to RIT. More than 2,500 students have benefited from the generosity of NRS members over the last 22 years.
To be eligible for the award, students must be enrolled in a bachelor's degree program at RIT, have a minimum of 3.4 cumulative GPA, have completed a minimum of 36 credit hours or 12 RIT credit hours for transfer students as of Spring 2015 semester, and demonstrate leadership, involvement in extracurricular activities and community service.
Rochester Institute of Technology is home to leading creators, entrepreneurs, innovators and researchers. Founded in 1829, RIT enrolls 18,000 students in more than 200 career-oriented and professional programs, making it among the largest private universities in the U.S.
The university is internationally recognized and ranked for academic leadership in business, computing, engineering, imaging science, liberal arts, sustainability, and fine and applied arts. RIT also offers unparalleled support services for deaf and hard-of-hearing students. The cooperative education program is one of the oldest and largest in the nation. Global partnerships include campuses in Croatia, Dubai and Kosovo.
