I'm thrilled to hear about your enthusiasm for STEM and your cultural interests. Programs like the 'Ebony HBCU STEM Queen' often aim to celebrate and promote academic excellence alongside cultural pride. Typically, involvement with such programs would require you to demonstrate strong academic performance in STEM fields, leadership qualities, and perhaps involvement in extracurricular activities that reflect your passion for both STEM and your heritage.

To get involved, start by checking with your school's career center or academic advisors to see if they have partnerships or connections with these programs. Additionally, you can look at the program's official website or contact them directly to learn about application processes and criteria. Getting involved in STEM-related clubs or organizations on campus and seeking leadership roles can also bolster your profile. Moreover, consider reaching out to past 'STEM Queens' or program alumni for advice and insights on their experiences.
