Scholarships
Scholarships are funds offered by various colleges, departments, organizations, or companies to students who meet specific criteria. For example, a physics major may intend to go into research, or an athlete may plan to become a coach. Scholarships may be awarded on merit, need, or a combination of factors and do not require repayment.
Cal State East Bay Scholarships
Cal State East Bay honors outstanding students each year by administering various scholarship awards. Scholarships range from $500 to $3,500, with the average award being $1,000. New and continuing students are encouraged to apply annually, as students may receive more than one scholarship. Although scholarships are awarded to honor outstanding academic achievement, many take financial need into consideration. For scholarships where need is a selection criteria, students must file the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) for consideration. Due to the large number of applications received, not all qualified students may receive scholarships.

The California Pre-Doctoral Program is open to CSU juniors, seniors, or graduate students who are U.S. citizens or permanent residents. Recipients are selected by their potential for success in completing a doctoral program, the probable effectiveness of the student/faculty plan, and the recipient's level of economic or educational disadvantage.
