I went to Invitation to Excellence as a senior in high school, and loved it.

Here's the web page: Baylor University | Visit Texas Undergraduate University Admissions, Texas University Undergraduate programs at accredited Baylor University || Invitation to Excellence

If you haven't been invited, and you're a NMF, you can talk to Baylor admissions to get invited (that's what we did). If you're not an NMF, you might be able to get invited as well.

It's this upcoming weekend, though, so they might be out of space.

If I remember correctly (and they haven't changed it much in the last four years), there were a variety of sessions you could choose from. I went to an Engineering/Computer Science one (as that was my intended major at the time), and one about study abroad opportunities (which I knew that I definitely wanted to pursue). There were others for students of different majors, and with different interests. There was also a lunch where they told you about all the different honors programs, and I'm pretty sure it was Saturday when we took a Baylor tour.

And sorry, I don't know anything about the "faculty scholarships".
