To support two outstanding candidates in their endeavor, we are excited to announce a competitive scholarship contest with two separate awards, each for $750. All applicants will be evaluated based on financial need, academic achievement, and work/creative experience. Recipiants will provide LA Study Away with thoughtful and informative content to be used for recruitment purposes. (Images may be shot on a phone provided they are of high quality). 

Priority is given to students who are not eligible for the Lew Klein or the CLA Internship Award.

**Deadline: Last day of program application period each semester.
