This paper describes my personal journey from a concept to a successful Computer Science, Engineering and Mathematics Scholarships (CSEMS) grant from the National Science Foundation. It explains the steps taken by a new project director at The Richard Stockton College of New Jersey, a small, primarily undergraduate institution with limited experience and support for grant-seeking. The message is that even in a context of inexperience, a small college can persevere and find ways to compete with the big institutions.

Keywords: writing grant proposals, grant-seeking, National Science Foundation, scholarships, computer science
