Know anything about the Renaissance Scholarship?

The Renaissance Scholarship is the highly selective scholarship for full-tutition. Does anyone know what kind of kids get this? I know it is the “top 1%”, but does anyone know exactly what that means? Just academics? or based on diversity(race/geograpy)? Demonstrated interest?

I have this fear that Rochester has to give them to the overachiever kids that would otherwise go to ivy leagues and are only applying to Rochester as a safety.

Rochester is my top choice and I’m just wondering if these scholarships are even worth thinking about.

Thanks
