Vets and Cadets

For many student veterans, the path to graduation is fraught with economic hardships. The Vets and Cadets Scholarship Fund provides student veterans and outstanding Cadets the financial assistance they need to complete their academic goals. The University's Army ROTC Titan Battalion, an award-winning battalion that has commissioned nearly 300 cadets as second lieutenants in the Army, the Army National Guard, and the Army Reserve, grants these Vets and Cadets scholarships yearly. 

 

The Cal State Fullerton student veterans and cadets in the Army ROTC Titan Battalion are highly motivated and driven – exceeding standards and performing at the highest levels academically. Far too frequently, our student veterans and cadets face difficult choices between funding their educational dreams or supporting their families. This scholarship eases their burden and displays that our community cares about supporting our veterans and future Army officers.   

 

Our veterans and cadets invest their time and energy into being the best they can be, as they have already or will soon serve as the guardians of freedom and the American way of life. You now can help in supporting their educational growth as they take the last few steps into joining the Army or as they transition back to the civilian community with additional education and skills.  

 

This award was established by CSUF alumnus Gregory Wirzbicki, his wife Cheryl, and their daughter Kathryn to provide scholarships honoring and aiding students of United States military background at Cal State Fullerton.  The Wirzbicki family has generously stepped forward once again to help support our veterans and Cadets. All gifts dollar-for-dollar to the fund meaning your gifts will have DOUBLE the impact! Plus with 25 donations we can unlock ANOTHER $5,000.
