Scholarships & Financial Aid

At the Annual CBPA Awards Banquet, Shelby and Chuck Obershaw presented fourteen scholarships to CBPA students. CBPA is grateful to donors such as the Obershaws for supporting our students. Scholarships are named in Spring for students who are continuing at CSUSB the following quarter. Except for two scholarships, one application serves as an application for all opportunities. In addition to scholarship recipients, the annual banquet also recognizes graduating students that have applied to receive awards of Outstanding Student in their concentration.
