Previous Winners of the Nancy Matlock Scholarship
The Nancy Matlock Scholarship was created to honor her legacy by benefiting future teachers. Preference for the scholarship award is given to first- or second-year students enrolled in the UC Santa Cruz two-year Graduate Certificate in Education program who have attended Cabrillo College for one continuous year. If no such qualified student(s) apply, preference is given to other students in the program. The award is based on academic merit and financial need. The selection committee makes its final determination considering which candidate’s commitment to the field of education most closely reflects the life and goals of Nancy Matlock.
