You may have better luck with a program like FIRST. If you can present the demographics of the students of other teams, and the students as they leave the program - it could be beneficial to the University to host and fund a team. Many teams nation wide are represented at Penn State, I am alumni of one such team with approximately 75% of its graduates fed into the Penn State system. Keep in mind that you may pull resources from the direction of Altoona also. Not only funding but also mentorship.
