The Al-Ben Scholarship for High School Senior Awards will be granted based primarily upon the superlative scholastic achievements in the academic pursuits of engineering, math, computer studies or scientific studies education and upon exemplary actions in campus organizations, or community activities, while maintaining an excellent grade point average. The objective of the program is to stimulate and support the student's interest in these technical areas that traditionally have an under-representation of minority professionals. The scholarship is currently open to students that will be attending a college or university in the United States; however, preference will be given to students that are Los Angeles area (Southern California) residents. The attached recommendation form is optional or any signed letter of recommendation format on official letterhead will be acceptable. Applicants must also submit a photograph of them in business attire; however, cap and gown photos are acceptable for high school applicants. A personal interview may be requested at the discretion of the scholarship committee. Please visit the scholarship's website for more information.
