70 students across the 3 participating campuses of the San Diego MESA Alliance (San Diego State University MESA Engineering Program, San Diego City College MESA program, and Southwestern Community College MESA program) were given a $500 scholarship for participation in SPSD activities.
5 students at SDSU were given scholarships less than $500 as appropriated by their unmet need determined by the Financial Aid & Scholarship Office.
$35,590 in NSF scholarships distributed directly to students significantly decreased financial burden on students and their families.
