Ca Comm College Hoffman Agency HBCU Scholarship- Deadline Approaching
March 21 @ 8:00 am - March 31 @ 5:00 pm
Two years ago a new scholarship was established by the Hoffman Agency, a PR firm in the northern California. The scholarship is open to any California Community College student transferring to a partner HBCU and pursuing a degree in the field of communications (or a related field such as journalism, mass communications, public relations, or English).
This scholarship is now in its third year. The most recent scholarship was awarded to a student from American River College who transferred to Grambling State University. The scholarship pays tuition and fees for a student’s junior and senior year (two years) at a partner HBCU.
2025 applications are now open!
The Hoffman Agency Scholarship will cover tuition and fees for a California Community College student who transfers to attending an HBCU to study communications.
The scholarship will cover the recipient’s junior and senior year at an HBCU, two years.
We established a non-profit foundation in California as the legal entity to house the scholarship, the LPJ Foundation (entity #5261937).
The deadline for students to apply for the The Hoffman Agency’s HBCU scholarship is quickly approaching and we want to ensure that any qualified student has the opportunity to submit an application. The closing date for applications is March 31, 2025. The Agency’s goal of offering this scholarship is to advance diversity across the overall communications profession.
