HSF Scholarship 2016-2017



Greetings from HSF!

Do you know someone pursuing an undergraduate or graduate degree? Would a scholarship and support services that include career and mentorship be of help? If you know a friend, family member or mentee who plans to continue their education and hasn’t already applied for a scholarship with the Hispanic Scholarship Fund (HSF), I enthusiastically invite you to reach out to them to encourage them to apply for the 2016-17 academic year.  

Our merit-based scholarship awards range from $500-$5,000, and are available for undergraduate and graduate students from all majors and fields of study. Please note that Business and STEM majors are highly encouraged to apply.
