The Fiat Lux Scholarship was established for high-achieving students from partner high schools in California. The scholarship provides monetary, community, and academic support to UC Berkeley students. Awards are renewed annually for a maximum of eight semesters. Applicants must be admitted first-year students who graduated from one of the partner high schools and who attended a partner high school for at least three years. Applicants must also be California residents or eligible nonresidents (AB 540 nonresident tuition exemption). As part of a holistic review process, candidates are invited to a one-on-one interview with a Berkeley faculty member in late March. Please visit the scholarship's website for more information.
