Cuban-American Scholarships Available - Deadline April 15:
Mas Family Scholarship Program
Deadline: April 15th, 2011
OBJECTIVES OF THE MAS FAMILY SCHOLARSHIP
To further the education of talented young men and women with leadership potential who, as future leaders in their professional fields, will advance the cause of a free society of responsible individuals, based on the principles and ideals of a democratic, free enterprise society.
The Mas Family, and The Jorge Mas Canosa Freedom Foundation - which manages the funds - are committed to these principles; they are eloquent examples of what citizens can achieve in a free society both as individuals and as members of voluntary associations. Through the Mas Family Scholarships, the members of the Mas Family are passing on to others some of the blessings which they received as the fruits of their labors in a free society.
The Mas Family Scholarship program, which is funded by the interest generated from a multi-million dollar donation by the Mas family in 1997, is currently the largest scholarship program for Cuban-American students in the country.
TYPES OF SCHOLARSHIP AWARDS
Undergraduate and Graduate scholarships are available in the fields of Engineering, Business, International Relations, Economics, Communications, and Journalism. Due to a growing number of students pursuing other majors than those listed above, the Mas Family Scholarship program WILL accept applications from all students of Cuban descent regardless of what field of study they choose.
SELECTION PROCESS
Awards are based on the recipient's academic performance, leadership qualities, potential to contribute to the advancement of a free society, and likelihood of succeeding in the student's chosen career. Each applicant will be evaluated through a two step selection process consisting of: 1.) a preliminary screening committee will analyze and confirm the student's credential (academic standing, grades, financial needs, etc.) and will select a pool of finalists; 2.) a selection committee will make the final determination based on written essays and on character evaluations.
AMOUNT OF AWARD
The amount of the award will depend on the cost of tuition at the recipient's institution, on his or her family's financial situation, as well as on the amount of funds received by the recipient from other sources. Full scholarships cannot be awarded to students who will be receiving full-tuition scholarships and/or stipendiary support from other sources, although such students are still eligible for partial awards. The Mas Family Scholarships are awarded for one year and all students are eligible to reapply in subsequent years. Those who have already received awards and have maintained a high level of performance will be given preference over new applicants.
