WHAT IS CENTRAL SCHOLARSHIP AND LOAN REFERRAL SERVICE?
The Central Scholarship and Loan Referral Service (CSLRS) of the United Jewish Federation of Greater Pittsburgh coordinates the efforts of a group of organizations, agencies, and scholarship endowment funds which provide need-based scholarships to local undergraduate and graduate Jewish students.
CSLRS is a program of the United Jewish Federation and is administered by the Career Development Center of Jewish Family and Children's Service.

Any Jewish high school senior, college or graduate student with demonstrated financial need is eligible to apply. All applicants must be bona fide residents of Allegheny, Beaver, Washington, Butler or Westmoreland counties for at least two years. Individuals are known by number, not name, to ensure confidentiality.
When a student applies for aid, the CSLRS committee matches the student with the funding source most likely to consider the application. Some funding sources require high academic achievement; all require students to demonstrate financial need.
HOW DO I APPLY?
For school year 2009-2010 Central Scholarship will again be using an on-line application process. The on-line applications will be availablein late November at http://www.centralscholarship.org.
First-time applicants must be interviewed by CSLRS staff.
