The Phyllis Cofield Pajardo Scholarship Fund was established in 2021 by Phyllis Pajardo to provide support for graduate students pursuing a Master of Education in Educational Leadership, with preference for students who are working in public education. If no applicants meet these criteria, preference will next be given to students enrolled in the Education Leadership Graduate Certificate Program. If no applicants meet these criteria, preference will next be given to students enrolled in the Ph.D. in Education program, with preference for those with a concentration in Education Leadership. Recipients may be enrolled full-time or part-time, may be in-state or out-of-state, and will qualify on the basis of academic merit and financial need.
