Two New SD2 Scholarships
The SD2 Scholarship and the Melody SD2 Scholarship have just been added to our Scholars page. SD2 is committed to investing directly in STEM interested students and is proud to have paired with Louise and Marc Stapley to create the Melody SD2 Scholarship. Both scholarships are high school student revolved funds that encourage students interested in pursuing a degree in S.T.E.M related field to apply. The mission of these opportunities and more details can be found below.
The SD2 Scholarship
San Diego Squared (SD2) is Empowering Tomorrow’s STEM Leaders Today! SD2 connects underrepresented students to the power of STEM by providing access to education, mentorship, and the resources they need to lead the talent workforce. As part of the Squared Scholars program, we invest directly in students that are pursuing a college degree in a STEM-related field (Science, Technology, Engineering, & Math).
This scholarship may be used for tuition, books, fees, room & board, and educational supplies. Every Squared Scholar will be paired with a STEM professional to server as a mentor for a year.
The scholarship may be renewable (depending upon available funds) for one additional year of STEM undergraduate coursework provided the student maintains a minimum GPA of 3.0 on a 4.0 scale, good citizenship, and continues to have financial need. Apply Here!
The Melody SD2 Scholarship
The Melody SD2 Scholarship was established by Louise and Marc Stapley. Louise and Marc both graduated from Reading University in England in 1991. They were the first members of their respective families to have the opportunity to attend college after high school and earn a degree. They were able to use that solid educational foundation to build careers for themselves. Consequently, they would like to help enable other students, who might not otherwise have the opportunity, to attend college and earn a degree.
