Town & Gown
Town & Gown seeks to integrate and engage the local community in the life of UC San Diego, developing informed members who advocate for and strengthen our university through their support for student scholarships.
Town & Gown Scholarship awardees are selected on the basis of four criteria: a high grade point average (usually above 3.80), volunteer community involvement, a career goal that offers service to others, and high financial need. The Town & Gown Scholarship Committee reviews all qualified applications and conducts in-person interviews with the finalists. The one-year, one-time awards are $6,000 and typically awarded in May or June for the upcoming academic year.
One of the most gratifying qualities of Town & Gown is the opportunity to change aspiring students’ lives through the awarding of scholarships. Town & Gown scholars are exemplary members of the Triton family and represent the next generation of leaders, innovators and decision-makers. We continue to follow their careers with excitement and pride.
Please join us with a gift today to empower the next generation of scholars and changemakers.
