<p>Here is a great listing by Congresswoman Lucy Roybal’s office re: scholarships for college. Some are directed at Latinos. Her office updates this list each year but I think this is the most current one. Hope it is helpful.</p>

<p>Here are a few more scholarship listings directed at Hispanics. Some of the info may be duplicates of other listings but there is no way to separate out the duplicates. The asipra is part of Latino Dollars for College listed above, but I like how it’s broken down and found it easy to read.</p>
