It’s scholarship season, which means there are hundreds of opportunities for San Diego State University students to prepare — at least financially — for next year. No matter what your major or what year you are in school, chances are there’s at least one scholarship that fits your student profile.

Each month leading up to the winter and spring application deadlines, @State will feature a scholarship from SDSU’s Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships online database. Apply for as many as you qualify for — It’s free, it’s easy, it’s online!
