SPECIFIC FIELD OF STUDY
The majority of scholarships are funded through the endowment established by Mario Pedrozzi and are awarded to eligible students without regard to a specific field of study. However, annually a number of scholarships are funded by generous community members and awarded to students who meet the Pedrozzi scholarship eligibility criteria and who are pursuing specific fields of study. In 2022, these scholarships will be awarded in addition to the general Pedrozzi scholarships:
- Charles Amirkhanian Music Scholarship – Music – $5,000 undergraduate or graduate scholarship
- John Houghton Undergraduate Scholarships – STEM – Science, Technology, Engineering or Math – $10,000 undergraduate scholarship
