Scholars Service Grant

The Scholars Service Grant program (SSG) is a service program that enhances academic study with civic engagement opportunities in the University or community.

Renewable grants of $960.00 per semester, are awarded to participating students who complete 60 hours of community service per semester, at an approved service site.

Minimum requirements to participate in the program are:

- A 3.5 cumulative Grade Point Average for students new to Fresno State or a 3.2 cumulative GPA for continuing students  
- An unmet AY financial need of $1,920

SSG students partner with faculty, staff, or community leaders to gain valuable experience towards their major or career interest. Participating students, who are undecided on their major or career, can gain valuable experience that help them decide on a particular field of study.

The SSG program is open to freshman through graduate students who are high academic achievers with a demonstrated unmet financial need. The flexibility of the program extends to meet the needs of the student, department, program, or project, in providing a meaningful experience for the student.
