Dear Applicant,

This competitive program was envisioned to acknowledge those who have demonstrated academic potential, perseverance, and motivation by awarding them a full-tuition scholarship* and monthly book stipend.

The NU Scholars Program is more than a scholarship, however. By incorporating unique academic and professional opportunities, and offering personalized pathways toward leadership, service, community engagement, and research, the NU Scholars Program cultivates tomorrow's community leaders.

NU Scholars are recognized and celebrated in our NU community, and the Director of the program will work directly with you to create your own trajectory of success.

We are incredibly grateful to The Conrad Prebys Foundation for their generous support of the NU Scholars Program. In alignment with the grant requirements, please note this scholarship is only available to San Diego County students.

We can't wait to celebrate you and your accomplishments!

-- NU Scholars Program
