Join fellow Cal alumni to interview scholarship finalists for The Leadership Award (TLA), The Achievement Award Program (TAAP), and/or the Kruttschnitt Aspire Scholarship Program (KASP) while strengthening your connection to Cal, socializing and networking with local alumni, and meeting prospective Cal students.

How It Works

Interview panels are conducted in-person or via Skype. Scholarship Chairs* (Alumni Scholarships super-volunteers) organize and coordinate interviews with local alumni. All interviewers are given an orientation by their Scholarship Chair that includes information about how to assess a candidate’s fit for the scholarship program to which they applied and best practices for interviewing. If you are interested in serving as an interviewer, register below and/or contact your local district/regional chair.

Interviews are conducted in June and July for incoming freshmen/transfer students and in September for current Cal undergrads.
