The Texas Leadership Scholars program, supported by the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board (THECB), is a state-wide, premier leadership program aimed at keeping high achieving, low-income Texas graduates in the state to pursue their higher education. The program will support high-achieving, low-income students in their postsecondary aspirations. The program consists of connecting cohorts of participating students with peer and professional networks and mentors, support leadership development, provide opportunities for undergraduate research, and offer job skills such as resume writing, social media use, communication, and collaboration.

​​​​​Top Scholars is a scholarship advising program for recipients of the LBJ Achievement Scholarship, and is based on first-generation status, TRIO Program membership, and participation in free or reduced lunch programs.

In this program, students will engage in different on-campus events, group meetings, and one-on-one meetings.
