The opportunity of a lifetime comes true for one of America's best and brightest high school students in this unscripted series that gives the winner a college education from a top-rated school of his or her choice. Ten supremely qualified high school seniors from economically disadvantaged backgrounds -- who might not otherwise have an opportunity to attend one of America's top universities -- compete for a full scholarship, a prize that could be worth as much as $240,000. They must demonstrate excellence in the areas of academics, leadership, creativity and community service while defending themselves in sudden-death oral exams before an Ivy League scholarship committee.
