CSUB Future Scholars Program

The CSU Future Scholars Program is designed to increase college participation of students who are disadvantaged because of economic, educational, or environmental factors.

Thirty (30) awards of $1,000 each are made on an annual basis. Students whose family have not had education beyond elementary or secondary school or who are the first in their family to attend college are eligible for consideration for this scholarship. Those who attended high schools where low rankings on standardized tests or poverty prevails, as well as migrant families, rural families and residents of impoverished areas are also eligible.

To be eligible students must be California residents, graduate from a California high school, meet regular CSU admission requirements, enter the CSU preferably as a first-time freshman or as a transfer student, enroll on a full-time basis, and demonstrate academic promise. Applications are customarily made available in the fall.
