    . Causeway students also participate in a study evaluating the program’s effectiveness. Causeway is a 12-month program. The program begins in July and ends the following June. We anticipate that each cohort will consist of between seven and nine students. Participants receive free tuition and a living stipend of approximately $34,000.  Each participant selects a track: pure mathematics, applied mathematics, or statistics. During the summer, students take a course in the foundations of higher mathematics
