Stanislaus State student Claudia Narez has been selected by the California State University Chancellor’s Office to receive a $3,000 Sally Casanova California Pre-Doctoral Scholarship for 2016-17.
The scholarship program, in its 27th year, provides funding to enable current CSU students to explore whether graduate school is right for them and to prepare those who already are planning to pursue a doctoral program in their chosen field of study. This year, 73 CSU and University of California students received Casanova scholarships.
The scholarships can be used to fund participation in summer research programs, visits to doctoral-granting institutions, travel to symposiums within the recipient’s majors, and to help defray graduate school application and test fees.
