Louisa Cielen Scholarship Endowment Fund

The Louisa Cielen Scholarship Endowment Fund was established in 1988 by Emil J. Cielen in memory of his late wife, Louisa G. Cielen, who earned her MSW in 1959 from the University at Buffalo. This scholarship supports students majoring in the School of Social Work at the University at Buffalo who demonstrate both financial need and high academic merit. Recipients must complete the FAFSA to demonstrate financial need and maintain strong academic performance. The scholarship award amount varies based on available funding and the number of qualified applicants.
