Scholarships for Students Interested in Becoming Bilingual School
Counselors
Application Deadline: December 8, 2004

The Brooklyn Campus of LIU was recently awarded a grant from the U.S.
Department of Education to offer scholarships for students who are interested
in becoming bilingual school counselors, but who are not proficient enough in
Spanish reading and writing to pass the required language test for state
certification as a bilingual counselor. This is an opportunity for someone to
take counseling classes on a part-time basis, improve their ability in Spanish
through course work in the language attached to select counseling courses,
and get the master's degree in 2 1/2 years. The student is responsible for only
1/3 of the tuition. Recipients of the scholarship will begin the program in
January, 2005.
