the A. Sanchez Award
Each fall, thanks to the generosity of donor Amelio Sanchez, LACS awards the A. Sanchez Construction Corporation Scholarship for Undergraduate Academic Achievement. This $2,500 award recognizes an undergraduate student attending Stony Brook University
who has shown outstanding academic achievement, scholarly promise, and service and
leadership to their community. Latino/Latina juniors and first semester seniors in
the College of Arts and Sciences with a minimum 3.0 cumulative GPA are eligible to
apply.
The application requires a current undergraduate transcript, C.V. indicating any relevant
academic prizes and community and work experiences, two faculty letters of recommendation,
and a brief (2-page maximum) essay that explains your accomplishments, major academic
interests and how your current studies relate to your future professional or intellectual
development. The application for Fall 2024 will be available in early September. Click here for an application and submission instructions.
Additional awards are also made available through the Hispanic Heritage Month Committee
LACS welcomes donors with ideas about creating new scholarships honoring Stony Brook
students, as well as larger developmental opportunities for endowed chairs, research
and working groups, and cultural activities. If you wish to make a donation of this
kind, please get in touch with LACS Director Lori Flores at lori.flores@stonybrook.edu
