The Monterey Bay Psychological Association (MBPA) is pleased to offer $1,500 Student Equity Awards to two students of color who will be entering a graduate program in clinical psychology in Fall, 2023. We offer this in recognition of the great need for clinical psychologists of color.
Awards will be given to one student from CSU Monterey Bay and one from UC Santa Cruz. This award is being offered to assist with the many expenses engendered in attending graduate school. As part of this award, each student will be offered several mentoring sessions with psychologists from MBPA to support and guide the awardee in preparing for graduate school and career development.
Please download and complete the application below and return it by June 1st, along with a copy of your graduate program acceptance letter and a faculty letter of recommendation, to our Social Justice & Diversity Committee Chair, Diane Bridgeman, Ph.D., via email at dianebridgeman@mac.com.
We anticipate notification of our decision to all applicants by June 15th.
