ALFSS Scholarships

About ALFSS 🌎

The Association of Latino Faculty, Staff, and Students (ALFSS) is committed to serving a diverse community of multiculturalism. With your support, we can continue to promote the participation of youth in higher education through scholarships.

Scholarship Fund Goal 🎯

The ALFSS scholarship fund was created to help CSUSB students continue to further their education. Since 1985, ALFSS has awarded more than $300,000 in scholarships to new and continuing CSUSB undergraduate and graduate students, including graduating high school seniors and community college transfer students. Providing our students the financial support needed as they continue to define the future.

How you can make a difference 🤝

CSUSB enrolls over 20,000 students, 81% are first-generation college students, and 77% receive grants and scholarships. Over 12,600 of our Latino student population are eligible for scholarships, however, not enough funds are available to meet our campus needs. With the help of donors like YOU, we can continue to make a difference for our #Coyote4Life students. Your generosity will help pave the way for future success in this region.
