Over the past 46 years, the USC Latino Alumni Association (LAA) has awarded more than $21.5 million in scholarships to 9,100 USC students who are Latino/Hispanic or committed to the Latino/Hispanic community.
LAA provides partial-tuition scholarships to USC undergraduate and graduate students who have demonstrated a strong commitment to the Latino/Hispanic community. Graduate scholarships are for master’s candidates only; limited awards for law, medical and doctor of pharmacy students are also available.
Scholarship awards per academic year range from $2,000 to $5,000 for undergraduate students, and $500 to $5,000 for graduate students.
Help us propel the next generation of leaders by supporting USC Latino Alumni Association scholarships! We welcome donor support to increase scholarship funds for USC students. Donations of any size make a difference and are all tax-deductible.
