The Sally Casanova Pre-Doctoral Scholarship program is designed to increase the pool of potential faculty by supporting the doctoral aspirations of CSU students who have experienced economic and educational disadvantages. The program emphasizes increasing the number of CSU students who enter graduate programs at one of the University of California institutions.
Selected applicants work closely with a CSU faculty sponsor to develop an overall plan which leads ultimately to enrollment in a doctoral program. In addition, the program provides travel funds, summer internship opportunities, and funds for other related activities, such as student membership in professional organizations, graduate school application and test fees, and minor research material costs.
Eligibility for the program requires candidates to be upper division or master’s degree students who are enrolled at a CSU institution in the Spring semester and who will be enrolled at a CSU campus for a least one term of the following academic year. Applicants are selected on the basis of potential for success in completing a doctoral program, probable effectiveness of the student/faculty plan, and level of economic and education disadvantage. Further information and application materials for the program are available at the CSU Chancellor's webpage at www.calstate.edu/predoc/Application.shtml.
The call for applications occurs during the fall semester, and selected scholars may expect notification by early summer of the following year. Applications are due to the Office of Graduate Studies & Research by March 12, 2012.
