UC Berkeley’s National Scholarships Office facilitates the institutional endorsement process for nationally competitive scholarships and fellowships. We provide advising and support to UC Berkeley students pursuing these opportunities and other select programs.

It’s not too early to start thinking about applying for scholarships for the 2023–2024 academic year. You can learn more here.

Again, congratulations to all, and happy summer!
