FINANCIAL AID AVAILABLE SCHOOL YEAR 2009-2010
The
United Jewish Federation of Greater Pittsburgh awards grants to
students who reside in the Greater Pittsburgh area (Allegheny, Butler
Beaver, Washington and Westmoreland Counties). 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. WHO QUALIFIES?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 are available at http://www.centralscholarship.org. First-time applicants must be interviewed by CSLRS staff. Application deadline is February 4, 2009. Regrettably, applications received after that date will not be considered. For further information, contact the Career Development Center of Jewish Family & Children's Service, 412-422-5627. |
