Application Requirements and Process

Scholarship applications will open in January 2025 for 2024-2025 high school seniors. Please reach out to scholarship@sandpipers.org for questions. 

Any high school senior student meeting all eligibility requirements below is eligible to apply for a Sandpipers’ Scholarship:

  • U.S. Citizen or eligible non-citizen (as defined by the U.S. Department of Education);

  • Cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher;

  • Permanent resident of the South Bay area of Southern California (roughly bounded by the 105 and 110 freeways);

  • Students residing outside the South Bay area are eligible if they attend a high school in the defined South Bay area; and
