California Scholarship Federation (CSF)
California Scholarship Federation (CSF)
Founded in 1921, the California Scholarship Federation (CSF) is the oldest scholastic, scholarship institution in the state of California. It is nationally recognized by colleges, universities, and scholarship organizations. CSF emphasizes high standards of scholarship, and community service for California high school students and encourages service to the school and community while fostering pride in academic scholastic achievement.
Students must apply each semester with the application period taking place at the beginning of each semester (Stockdale students are informed of these dates through our daily Mustang Memo, and/or StHS website). To secure eligibility for CSF membership, a student must earn 10 points to qualify and must have earned As, Bs, and Cs from the pre-approved course list classes. These students, if qualified, will earn the CSF Gold Seal on diplomas and notation on transcripts and are recognized during Senior Academic Awards and their graduation ceremony with a gold cord, and the silver cap and gown.
* Membership counting towards Silver cap & gown begins with grades earned in the 10th grade year.
** Associate membership is for grades earned in 9th grade. Associate membership does not qualify for Silver cap & gown but will be noted on the transcript.
