Scholarship

Welcome to the scholarship page for the USC Alumni Club of West LA! We have worked hard to develop a mission statement that addresses the needs of our community and work to provide awards for students with the following thought in mind:

The USC Alumni Club of West Los Angeles is an organization that promotes an active and engaged Trojan Network whose purpose is to connect local alumni while developing professional, philanthropic, and social relationships with a focus on continually building a scholarship fund for the next generation of Trojan Alumni.

On behalf of the board members and the Club, I encourage you to apply for our scholarships—we have a holistic review process and recognize that there are many ways for individuals to contribute to our campus.

2010-2011 USC Alumni Association Scholarship applications are due December 1! Click here for the application.

Should you have any questions, please feel free to e-mail me at scholarship@westlatrojans.com.

Fight On!

2009-2010 Awards

Daniel Kadin – Class of 2013 – Undeclared
I’m from LA and am an incoming freshman in the fall. Although I’m undeclared, I’m really interested in Neuroscience, Psychology, and different studies of the brain and may eventually declare a major in Neuroscience. I love music; indie, techno, alternative, rock, etc. I play bass, guitar, and drums. I love basketball but just play for fun now and can’t wait to go out and support Trojan athletics. See you in the fall, Fight On!
