For information on Math and Computer Science Scholarships contact Nicole Rossi at nrossi@fullcoll.edu. A nomination form provides an equitable process in which students are nominated by staff or faculty for being exemplary. Students can help faculty and staff by letting them know you are interested in a nomination and provide an Academic Resume.
Eligility
- Students should be enrolled full-time (taking at least 12 units in the current semester).
- Transfer scholarships require graduation and moving on to a four-year university.
- Some opportunities require a minimum 3.0 GPA.
- Many of the award opportunities seek candidates with strong academics, leadership qualities, good character, work ethic, interpersonal skills or those with financial barriers.
- Scholarships for students with financial barriers usually must qualify for financial aid, Board of Governor’s Fee Waiver and/or Promise Grants.
Academic Resume
Faculty and staff interact with many students. Please contact one person on campus who you have interacted with and remind them about who you are and your story. Sometimes sending your Academic Resume helps them put a nomination together for you.
