4 Latino College Dollars • 2007– 2008 Directory

September 2007

Dear Friends,

Time and again, research conducted by the Tomás Rivera Policy Institute (TRPI) has revealed

an overwhelming majority of Latino parents and families value a college education, yet they

perceive the cost of higher education to be prohibitive. Many families are not aware that

numerous scholarships and grants are available specifically to Latino students, and every

year thousands of dollars go unclaimed.

Today, most scholarships are publicized online, and yet we realize that it takes time to

research scholarship opportunities and that computer access is often limited in Latino homes.

In 2006, TRPI released its inaugural scholarship guide for Latino students in California,

sparking an unprecedented demand and becoming the most-accessed report in TRPI history.

More than 50,000 copies of the directory were viewed online in just four months.

Building on that success, we are proud to announce that this 2007 publication is now

nationwide in scope. Thanks to the generous funding of The John Randolph Haynes and Dora

Haynes Foundation, The Sallie Mae Fund, and The Walt Disney Company, we have assembled

an up-to-date directory of scholarships that are offered specifically for Latino students

throughout the entire United States.

Best of luck to you as you work to find the financial support you deserve.

Sincerely,

Harry P. Pachon, Ph.D.

Estimados amigos:

Estudios realizados por el Instituto Político de Tomás Rivera (TRPI, siglas en inglés) constan-temente revelan que aunque una mayoría de padres de familia latinas valoran una educaciónuniversitaria, ellos perciben el costo de esta educación prohibido. Muchas familias no sabenque hay numerosas becas y ‘dinero gratis’ disponibles específicamente para estudiantes lati-nos, y cada año miles de estos dólares no son reclamadas.Hoy en día, la mayoría de las becas están publicadas en Internet, pero comprendemos quetoma tiempo investigar estas oportunidades, y que acceso a una computadora es limitado envarios hogares latinos.

En el año 2006, TRPI estreno su directorio de becas para estudiantes latinos de California,resultando en una demanda sin precedente y convirtiéndose en el reporte más solicitado en lahistoria de TRPI. En solo cuatro meses, más de 50,000 copias del directorio fueron vistas ennuestra página de Internet. Aparte de este éxito, estamos orgullosos en anunciar que el directorio que hemos preparadopara el año 2007 es de alcance nacional. Gracias a la generosidad financiera de The JohnRandolph Hayes and Dora Hayes Foundation, Sallie Mae Fund, y The Walt Disney Company,hemos recopilado un nuevo directorio de becas ofrecidas específicamente a estudiantes latinosde todas partes de los Estado Unidos.Les deseamos buena suerte en la búsqueda para encontrar la ayuda financiara que ustedesmerecen.

Atentamente,

Get the Money You Need!

What are scholarships?Scholarships are free money available to off-set thecost of school. Students have to apply for scholar-ships, which are awarded on a case-by-case basis,often based on merit. If a student receives a scholar-ship, it does not have to be paid back.

What do you need to have to qualify for a scholarship?Every scholarship in the following pages has varyingrequirements – including its own application, whichyou will need to get and complete – but it is a goodidea to pull together a folder of the following infor-mation (or as much of it as you can), as almost allscholarships will ask for some combination of thesethings:

• Letter(s) of reference

• Writing sample

• Resume

• Official transcripts

• One or two essays

• Copy of Student Aid Report (SAR - see below)

• Parent and Student Tax Returns and W-2 Forms

• GPA Certification Form

• Enrollment Verification Form

• Copy of Financial Award Letter

Beware of scholarship scams.Be wary of scholarship applications that require an“application fee.” Also proceed with caution withscholarship matching services that guarantee resultsand sales pitches that describe themselves as finan-cial aid workshops or seminars.

Do you need to be a citizen or legal permanent resident to qualify for a scholarship?Some scholarships require proof of citizenship or resi-dency in order to qualify for a scholarship, but othersdo not. Throughout this guide, scholarships markedwith the icon • require some kind of residencyrequirement. Scholarships marked with the icon •• donot. Both types of scholarships are listed separatelyin the back of this directory.

Where can you get more printed informationabout paying for college?Call the federal government for a free guide, inEnglish or in Spanish, to student financial aid:1-800-4-FED-AID (1-800-433-3243). It also is availableonline at www.studentaid.ed.gov, a website offeredin both English and Spanish. This guide is an excellentcomprehensive “how to” resource.

Additional free resources on planning and paying forcollege can be downloaded from The Sallie MaeFund website, www.thesalliemaefund.org. The siteincludes toolkits, checklists, and more—in Spanishand in English.

Are you entering college next year?Complete the FAFSA as soon as possible!If you do nothing else, complete the Free Applicationfor Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), immediately afterJanuary 1 of your senior year of high school andevery year thereafter you intend to continue your college education. It is a form used by most schoolsto determine financial aid, and money is awarded ona first-come, first-served basis. After you submit yourFAFSA, you will be sent a Student Aid Report (SAR),which tells how much money your family is expectedto contribute to your college education for one year.This helps schools and scholarship organizationsknow how much money you will need in financial aid.


¿Qué son las becas?Las becas ofrecen dinero gratuito para cubrir el costoeducativo. El estudiante sólo tiene que solicitar labeca, lo cual se concede dependiendo de cada casoy, a menudo, por mérito de calificaciones. Si un estu-diante recibe una beca, no tiene que devolver el dinero.

¿Qué necesitas tener para obtener unabeca?Todas las becas que se incluyen en las siguientespáginas tienen distintos requisitos, incluso su propiasolicitud, el cual deberá obtener y completar. Es unabuena idea preparar una carpeta con la siguienteinformación (o con lo más información posible)debido a que toas las becas piden algunas de lassiguientes cosas:

• Carta o cartas de recomendación

• Una muestra de escritura

• Un currículum

• Documento de calificaciones oficial

• Uno o dos ensayos

• Copia del Informe de Ayuda Estudiantil (SAR, siglasen inglés)

• Declaraciones de impuestos y formularios W-2 delestudiante y de padres de familia

• Formulario de certificación del promedio académico(GPA, siglas en inglés)

• Formulario de verificación de matriculación

• Copia de la carta financiera otorgada

Cuidado con las estafas relacionadas conlas becasTenga cuidado con las becas que requieren un “honorario de solicitud”. Asimismo, no se dejeengañar por servicios de búsqueda de becas quegarantizan resultados ni por aquellos que sedescriben a si mismos como talleres o seminarios de ayuda financiera.

¿Se necesita ser ciudadano o residentepermanente legal para poder obtener unabeca?Algunas becas requieren prueba de ciudadanía o residencia para poder calificar por becas, pero otrasno. A través de este directorio, las becas marcadascon el símbolo • requieren ciertos requisitos conrespecto a la residencia. Las becas marcadas con elsímbolo •• no tienen requisitos. Ambos tipos debecas se encuentran en la parte posterior de estedirectorio.

¿Dónde se puede obtener más informaciónsobre el pago de la educación universitaria?Llame al gobierno federal para obtener una guía gratuita, en inglés o en español, sobre ayudafinanciera estudiantil: 1-800-4-FED-AID (1-800-433-3243).Ésta guía es un recurso excelente que detalla cómosolicitar ayuda.

The Sallie Mae Fund tiene una variedad de recursoseducacionales gratuitos, en inglés y en español, encomo preparar y pagar por la universidad. Puedebajar en su computadora los materiales o imprimiruna forma a www.salliemaefund.org.

¿Su hijo o hija ingresa a la universidad el añopróximo? Complete la solicitud gratuitade ayuda estudiantil federal (FAFSA) lomás pronto posible.Si no realiza nada más, complete la solicitud gratuitainmediatamente después del 1 de enero del últimoaño de preparatoria y cada año después si piensacontinuar la educación universitaria. Es un formularioque utilizan la mayoría de las escuelas para determinarla ayuda financiera, la cual se otorga a los primerosque la soliciten.

Luego de presentar el formulario gratuito, recibirá uninforme de ayuda estudiantil (SAR), el cual determinacuanto la familia tendrá que pagar en su primer añode escuela. Esto ayuda a las escuelas y organizacionesde becas a determinar cuál será la ayuda financieraque necesitará.

PADRES: ¡ayuden a sus hijos a obtener el dineroque necesitan para asistir la universidad!


About this directory…This directory contains all organizations in the United States identified by the Tomás Rivera Policy Institute(TRPI) that award grants and scholarships specifically targeting Latino students. Additionally, TRPI has includedthe largest national organizations (in total dollars awarded) that grant scholarships for which Latino studentsmay qualify.

To be included in this guide, scholarship programs must have current, accessible contact and applicationinformation. They must specifically target Latino students in their award criteria. Exceptions include thelargest national donors, migrant farm worker scholarships that often award their monies to Latinos, andscholarships making an effort to attract Latino students, such as by reserving awards for minorities. Excludedfrom the guide are scholarships requiring acceptance into a particular institution, fellowships without scholarshipmoney, and awards designed only for dependents of employees at a specific organization.

TRPI acknowledges that new scholarship opportunities geared for Latino students are becoming available ona continual basis, and the institute urges readers to submit new scholarship listings or corrections to TRPI.

TRPI also encourages students to check for scholarships from colleges or universities they are attending, asthey may offer institution-specific scholarships.

Other considerations when using this guide: If the GPA requirement of a scholarship is listed N/A, academicachievement still may be a consideration. Also bear in mind that generally students will have to meet someminimum requirements to renew and retain any awards. It will become clear during the application process ifa scholarship is renewable and how to renew it.

Finally, students should be aware of potential changes in sponsors, deadlines, or criteria by confirming schol-arships early in the application process with the sponsoring organizations either online, on the telephone, orin the mail.

Developing this directory…TRPI is proud to expand this popular guide for Latino high school, undergraduate, and graduate students in theUnited States. The original project was born of a 2005 TRPI regional study that identified all the organizationsin Southern California where Southern California Latino students and parents could receive information aboutor apply for college scholarships and grants. Among the outcomes of the study was a recommendation fororganizations to actively disseminate hard copies of online data, as the online scholarship search process wasfound to be time-consuming and complicated.

The TRPI study also found that the difficulties of online scholarship searches were compounded by the realitythat many Latino households do not have Internet access. Any online search is likely to be undertaken at alibrary or school, where time on a shared computer is limited.

In 2006, in response to these findings, TRPI released its first printed scholarship directory which offeredscholarships specifically for California Latino students. Extraordinary demand for that guide inspired theinstitute and its sponsors to bring the project to a national level.

This year, TRPI is pleased to offer a nationwide guide to help Latino students across the country apply forthe money they need and deserve in the face of increasing costs of higher education.

It should be noted that, while TRPI researchers recognized that there would be value including all organiza-tions to which students could apply for scholarships in the United States, such an undertaking was beyondthe scope of the project.
