FIRST is about changing the value of science and technology in our society starting with today's students that will become tomorrow's leaders. Many universities and technical organizations offer scholarships available only to FIRST students. Some universities such as Clarkson University will even waive the application fees for FIRST students. Scholarships are available to Junior and Senior FIRST students.

Team #145 students said the following about being on the FIRST team:
