Financial Support:
$3,000 Graduate Equity Fellowship


California State University, San Bernardino will award Graduate Equity Fellowships to educationally or financially disadvantaged students, including under-represented ethnic minority, women, or disabled graduate students for the 2009/2010 academic year. The goal of the Graduate Equity Fellowship Program is to assist under-represented students in the completion of the master's degree at CSUSB, and encourage them to pursue a doctorate and teach at the university level. If you are currently receiving financial aid, the Graduate Equity Fellowship may impact your award. The award is based on academic achievement and the potential for going on to the Ph.D., and eventually teaching at the university level. Fellowships are renewable for an additional year, on a competitive basis.
