Program description

"The Congresswoman Lynn Schenk Capstone Scholarship was established to support UCLA students completing the required B.A. in Public Affairs experiential learning capstone opportunity during their senior year. Eligibility Criteria for Summer 2025 Applicants: Must be declared as Public Affairs major with the Registrar. Continuing and incoming Transfer Students are eligible to apply. Demonstrate financial need based on FAFSA and UCLA Financial Aid Office Transfer, CA Dream Act, and Visa students are eligible. AWARD AMOUNT : Up to $2000 IMPORTANT POLICIES : Priority will be given to new applicants, but past awardees are welcome to apply. In some cases, final award amounts may be adjusted for indirect costs and/or taxes. Awards may also affect the students’ financial aid packages. In all cases, students who are awarded are strongly encouraged to discuss possible financial aid impact with UCLA Financial Aid Office. Note: UCLA administers all Identity-Conscious Financial Aid in compliance with federal, state, and university regulations by using “Pool and Match” applications for unrestricted awards, identity conscious awards, and other restricted awards (major, need, community service, etc.). Identity conscious awards may include a preference for a student’s race, sex (including gender identity and sexual orientation for purposes of this policy), color, ethnicity, or national origin. These pooled applications allow students to submit a single “Luskin” application to be considered for multiple scholarships, and are used in determining the source of a recipient’s aid, but not their eligibility, receipt, and amount of financial aid."

Where this information comes from

This page is published from University of California, Los Angeles's own public scholarship portal (ucla.academicworks.com), read and verified 2026-09-03. This is a different source from most of this site's listings, which come from IRS Form 990-PF filings — see how we source scholarships. Portals change between cycles, so always confirm current details on the source listing before applying.

Most listings on this site are compiled from the foundation’s own IRS Form 990-PF filing — the public record where foundations that accept applications must state who to contact, how to apply, any deadlines, and any restrictions. Listings under /award/ are a second, separate source: read directly from the foundation’s own public scholarship portal, with a link to that source on every page. Filings are annual and portals change between cycles, so details can change: always confirm the current deadline and requirements with the foundation before applying. This site is not affiliated with, authorized by, or endorsed by any foundation listed. Scholarship information here is free; we charge only for optional application coaching, and we never write your application for you.
