Program Eligibility

CSU juniors, seniors, or graduate students who are U.S. citizens or permanent residents are eligible to apply. You must be enrolled at CSUEB in Spring 2025, and also be enrolled for at least one semester of the academic year 2025-2026.

Applicants will be selected on the basis of three major criteria: the potential for success in completing a doctoral program, probable effectiveness of the student/faculty plan, and level of economic and educational disadvantage. Applicants work with a faculty sponsor to develop an overall plan, which will ultimately lead to enrollment in graduate school. The program provides an opportunity for summer research experience and funds for travel and other related activities.

Application Process

To prepare an application to the California Pre-Doctoral Program, you will need to:

1. Seek a CSUEB faculty sponsor.
2. In collaboration with your faculty sponsor, develop a 'Faculty Sponsor/Student Plan' for the funded activities you will engage in to prepare for entering a doctoral program.
3. Complete and submit the 2025-26 Sally Casanova Scholarship application.

Completed applications will be composed of the application, three essay questions, transcripts, budget, and faculty letter of recommendation (all submitted online).

Appointments are available for faculty and students with questions about the program. Please contact the Graduate Studies Office via email at gradstudies@csueastbay.edu if you have any questions or to schedule an appointment.  Students interested in applying should make an appointment to review their application prior to submission.

All materials must be submitted by the Chancellor Office application deadline (likely mid-February 2025).  Your application will be reviewed, and feedback provided.

Health Professions Track of the California Pre-Doctoral Program

Applications will be available on the Chancellor’s Office website in December, with the deadline for submission likely set in the first two weeks of February.  Although part of the California Pre-Doctoral Program, the Health Professions Track (HPT) differs in its focus, and follows a separate application and review process. The HPT is designed for students interested in obtaining health professional doctorates with an explicit research component. Students interested in obtaining strictly clinical or practitioner degrees (doctorates in law, medicine, dentistry, pharmacy, clinical psychology, for example) are not eligible. The HPT aims to increase the number of students from the CSU’s diverse undergraduate and graduate populations who pursue health professional doctoral degrees in the California State University and University of California systems, including PhDs, DrPHs, DNPs, DSWs, and AudDs. The HPT participates in joint programming with the California Pre-Doctoral Program, while maintaining distinct elements tailored for future health professionals for whom research will play a central role in their careers..

The HPT anticipates awarding funds to approximately ten juniors, seniors, and master’s degree students in the California State University (CSU). These funds will support students as they explore and prepare to succeed in doctoral programs in the  health professions, including public health, kinesiology, social work, human development (with an emphasis on health), health/social psychology, speech/language/hearing sciences, and nursing. Awards are based on competitive review of applications from current upper-division or master’s students who, in the judgment of the review panel, demonstrate academic excellence while having experienced economic or educational disadvantage, and have strong interest in pursuing research-oriented careers in the health professions. Professional interests or career goals in health may include (but are not limited to):

• Becoming a faculty member at a CSU or other public institution of higher education in California
• Improving health care service delivery or public health systems in a leadership role
• Influencing policies, programs, and practices through evidence-based approaches in an expert capacity
  

The HPT welcomes applications from matriculated CSU students committed to health equity and creating a health workforce that is reflective of and responsive to California’s diverse communities.

Sally Casanova Health Professions Scholars will receive a $5,000 scholarship, administered through the Office of Financial Aid of the CSU campus in which the student is enrolled in Fall 2025. This award can be used to fund: 

• Travel for the student to visit U.S. health professional doctoral-granting institutions and/or to attend professional meetings appropriate to the student's development
• Academic and Professional Development, such as fees for student membership in professional associations, subscriptions to academic journals, preparatory classes for and fees associated with standardized tests (e.g., GRE), and cost of materials to support scholarly projects.

Health Professions Scholars will be eligible to submit an application for the following:

• A Summer Research Experience opportunity in an academic institution which confers health professional doctorates, fully funded by the California Pre-Doctoral Program, so that the Scholar can participate in doctoral-level research prior to applying to an appropriate doctoral program in the health professions.
  

Eligibility

All CSU upper-division undergraduate and master’s students, with the exception of international students, are eligible to apply. Current or previous Pre-Doctoral Scholars are not eligible to re-apply. Applicants to the HPT must be matriculated upper-division or master's degree students who are currently seeking a degree at a CSU campus, and will be enrolled at the campus for at least the fall term of the 2025-26 academic year. Each applicant must have a faculty mentor from the student’s home CSU campus who will be available for the duration of the plan specified in the application.

Applicants will be selected on the basis of three major criteria: potential for successful application to and completion of a health professional doctoral program, probable effectiveness of the Collaborative Mentorship Plan, and level of economic and educational disadvantage.

Application Process

The online application will be available on the website for the California Pre-Doctoral Program. Key components of the application will include: 

• Three essays
• Collaborative Research Plan
• Budget Plan
• Academic Transcripts
• Letter of recommendation from CSU Faculty Mentor

It is important that students develop an authentic relationship with a Faculty Mentor who is familiar with their personal values and professional aspirations. Successful applicants will demonstrate that their Faculty Mentor is demonstrably committed to provide dedicated mentorship for professional development and exposure to key research experiences.

A CSU Student Research Competition is held each year, typically in April. 

This system-wide competition showcases the innovative research and creative activities of CSU undergraduate and graduate students in the full range of academic programs offered by the CSU. Student participants make oral presentations before juries of professional experts from major corporations, foundations, public agencies, colleges and universities of California.

The competition is held annually to promote excellence in undergraduate and graduate scholarly research and creative activity. It recognizes outstanding student accomplishments from throughout the twenty-three campuses of the California State University.

The OSCAR (formerly Center for Student Research) Scholars’ Program offers Scholar development workshops and supports faculty-mentored research and creative activities. These types of activities are known to give students more frequent and more individual attention and feedback from CSUEB professors, which can result in increased academic success. The OSCAR also awards tuition scholarships to Scholars who attend OSCAR development workshops, as well as grant opportunities to receive funding for travel and supplies. OSCAR Scholars are freshmen through seniors as well as graduate students who vary in GPA, major, race and ethnicity, socioeconomic status, and educational experience. The OSCAR is looking for students who are passionate about their future. Check out the CSR website or follow them on Instagram, Twitter, or Facebook (@csrcsueb) for more info to apply.
