The Armenian Studies Program awarded scholarships to fifty-one students from forty-seven different endowments or scholarship funds for a total of $137,000.
In addition to providing needed financial support, the scholarships encourage students to pursue a Minor 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 Scholarship Program and to encourage them to apply for the 2026-2027 academic year (application period will open in October of 2026).
Applying has become simplified and is entirely online through the University website at https://studentaffairs.fresnostate.edu/financialaid/scholarships/scholarshipapplication/index.html.
