2025 CLAA Scholarship – Berkeley Chicanx Latinx Alumni Association 

CLAA Annual Scholarship 

The 2025-26 Berkeley Chicanx Latinx Alumni Association (Berkeley CLAA) Scholarship Program is sponsored by an amazing group of individual donors, foundations, and CLAA regional chapters. Thanks to their contributions, UCB CLAA Scholarships will support undergraduate and graduate Chicanx Latinx students at Cal who demonstrate need for tuition, books, equipment, and living expenses.
Scholarships are awarded on the basis of need and merit. A needs assessment and overall financial aid package will be evaluated by Berkeley CLAA. Scholarship awards are based upon the following primary factors:

  • Matriculation at UC Berkeley with undergraduate or graduate standing
  • Financial need
  • Commitment to the Latinx community
  • Leadership potential
  • Exceptional academic and professional potential​


​Some, but not all funds, are restricted by certain donors to students meeting other criteria. These include but are not limited to:

  • Student in the school of public health, or planning a career in public health

Applications are now open!

First, Not Last: Breaking Generational Barriers

The Berkeley CLAA-LA Chapter is meant to provide resources to alumni in the LA market, and as such, we aspire to become part of the fabric that makes LA. 

This year, we will focus on serving our alumni, prospective students, and overall Greater Los Angeles comunidad by ensuring that we provide learning, growing, outreach and networking opportunities that allow us to push and pull each other towards paving the way for ourselves and future generations. Our motto for the year, First, Not Last: Breaking Generational Barriers, exemplifies just that – our commitment to be a space that welcomes all members of the Los Angeles community to partake in opening doors for one another and slowly removing barriers for the next generation. 

Donating to CLAA

All donations go towards scholarships and materials for hosting events. Students are encouraged to apply for a scholarship every year and will usually receive the funding awarded before the beginning of the next school year. Materials used for hosting events include decorations, food, utensils, raffle items, deposits for reserving a space, and more. Most of these items will be paid for by the monies generated through fundraising events.  Please label your donation “CLAA -LA chapter”.
