Hye Sharzhoom Armenian Action
Staff Report
The Armenian Studies Program awarded scholarships to fifty-seven students from thirty-five different endowment or scholarship funds for a total of $90,000 for the academic year 2022-2023. In addition to providing needed financial support, the scholarships en-courage students to pursue Minors in Armenian Studies and to enroll in the various course offerings.
We ask our students and our supporters to tell their friends and relatives about the Armenian Studies Program Scholarship Program and to encourage them to apply for the 2023-2024 academic year (application period will open in October of 2023).
Applying has become simplified and is entirely online through the Program website at https://cah.fresnostate.edu/armenianstudies/students/scholarships-offered.html and the University website at https://studentaffairs.fresnostate.edu/financialaid/scholarships/scholarshipapplication/index.html.
