Adriana Scanteianu advocated for a more equitable admissions process at the Rutgers-New Brunswick Honors College
There was never a doubt about what Adriana Scanteianu would major in when she entered Rutgers University-New Brunswick: Math.
After all, she comes from a STEM family. Her mother is a business analyst for a bank, her father is an electrical engineer, her brother is pursuing a master’s in computer science from Columbia University, and her grandmother was even a math teacher in Romania. And Scanteianu was awarded the Regeneron Science Talent Search Scholar for her self-led computational biology research in high school – some of which has since been published.
