Our Opportunities

The 2023-24 SJSU scholarship application, Spartan Scholarships, is CLOSED for all students.

We are currently reviewing scholarship applications. Students who are selected for a scholarship award will be notified on a rolling basis via their preferred email address in MYSJSU through the Fall 2023 semester.
The 2024-25 application will be open during the Spring semester.
We also encourage all students to apply for External scholarship opportunities offered by private organizations outside of SJSU.
