The Black Alumni Scholarship

 

The Black Alumni Scholarship is now closed for the 2024-2025 Academic Year. Stay on the lookout for our Fall 2025 Scholarship this upcoming school semester!

 

Both the old Igbo and Yoruba African proverb say: 

“It takes a village to raise a child” 

This proverb is a staple of the Black community. It means that an entire community of people must invest in our young people to help them to flourish in a safe and healthy environment. The CSULB Black Alumni Scholarship honors this proverb by supporting the mission of the Black Resource Center and providing scholarships for students supporting the advocacy of our African American population on campus. 


All students, regardless of sex, race, color, national origin, or any other protected identity, who are interested in the program’s mission and focus, are welcome and eligible to participate in the Black Scholars Program.
