Scholarship information

The Los Diablos Scholarship is more than just tuition assistance. Los Diablos is a comprehensive program that includes mentoring, professional development, and service projects designed to promote our mission of providing scholarship opportunities to deserving students. This will require an unwavering commitment from our scholars to actively participate in various Los Diablos events during, and in preparation for, the academic school year. These events are not only requirements in order to be considered for scholarship renewal, but they are also excellent opportunities to meet and thank our generous donors, network, develop leadership skills, and have fun. As a Los Diablos Scholar, you will be a partner in continuing the legacy of this program.
