ABOUT PEDROZZI SCHOLARSHIPS
Mario Pedrozzi left his estate as a gift to the Livermore community. Mr. Pedrozzi envisioned that his wealth could provide a means 
for students of all ages to achieve their educational and career dreams. His objective was to promote higher education for a wide range of students who demonstrate desire, potential, and promise of the future.
As the leading scholarship provider in Livermore, CA, the Pedrozzi Foundation has supported over 2,048 students by awarding $7.6 million in scholarships since 2008.
The Foundation awards scholarships exclusively to students who are graduating or have graduated from a Livermore Valley Joint Unified District high school and are pursuing education or training beyond high school or students who were residents of Alameda County upon high school graduation and have been accepted at St. Patrick’s Seminary & University. If you are an eligible St. Patrick’s Seminary & University applicant, please contact us at info@pedrozzi.org.
Scholarships awarded will be at least $1,000 per year, but some Scholars may be awarded more due to financial need or if they are receiving a donor-funded scholarship. The maximum total scholarship eligibility is four years.
Undergraduate students may be awarded up to four years of funding, while community college, vocational/career education, and graduate students may be awarded up to two years of funding.
Most scholarships are paid annually when scholarship recipients maintain required units and GPA. However, we offer flexible disbursement schedules on a case-by case and by request basis. For example, if a student did not require scholarship funding during
their first year of college, we can defer funding until year two. If you have questions about the scholarship disbursement schedule, please reach out to info@pedrozzi.org.

Applications for vocational/career training and the Tool Apprenticeship Scholarship are accepted year-round, including submitting required documentation. High school seniors are encouraged to apply by April 15, 2027. There is a writing portion of the application.

Required documents:
- An official transcript from your LVJUSD high school must be submitted and received by the application deadline.
- If you are a current college student or college graduate, you must also submit any official college transcripts by the application deadline.
