    Our scholarship program was established in 1998 in response to the passage of SP-1, the University of California Regents’ resolution to end affirmative action and race-based admissions at UC schools. In over twenty years, we have awarded over 2 million dollars in scholarships to hundreds of students. Scholarship applications will be reviewed starting in the beginning of June, with final decisions being made in the first week of August.
