XXVIII ANNUAL ERNESTO GALARZA SCHOLARSHIP
2013-14 Dr. Ernesto Galarza Scholarship Application
Due: Friday, April 5, 2013

The Ernesto Galarza Scholarships applications are now available! Sponsored by the Chicano/Latino Faculty and Staff Association (CLFSA) of San José State University, the annual scholarship was established to honor Dr. Galarza's commitment to the Chicano/Latino community and to foster that same commitment in our youth.

Information about the application and requirements can be found online at this site or by contacting the scholarship committee chair,  Ada E. Márquez, by email at clfsa-scholarship-group@sjsu.edu

These scholarships are given in collaboration with local community groups to assist students in their pursuit of higher education at San José State University. The CLFSA gives these scholarships in honor of Dr. Galarza to address some of the barriers students face in their  pursuit of higher education.

Continuing SJSU undergraduate and graduate students are invited to apply. We continue to accept applications from SJCC, EVC, or NHU students who are transferring to SJSU in the Fall semester of 2013. Applicants must be available for an interview April 23 or April 25, 2013 at SJSU between the hours of 9 a.m. and 5 p.m.

Awards will be presented at the Dr. Ernesto Galarza Symposium - a celebration on Thursday, May 9, 2013 from 5:30-7:30 pm at the Cultural Heritage Center at the MLK Library at SJSU. At that event the scholarship recipients will be formally recognized and all members of the campus and larger community are invited to attend.
