Scholarships Make Dreams Come True
“I fell in love with Colorado at a young age, and when it came time for college, Colorado State University was recommended to me by an alumnus. After researching online, I knew that CSU could provide the tools and research for me to pursue my dreams of becoming an Animal Scientist. During my first campus visit, I was welcomed by the snow-covered trees in the Oval and immediately fell in love with the beauty of it all. At first, I was nervous about being far away from home and knowing only a few people. However, I was excited about a new opportunity and the ability to experience the different seasons that California lacked. Now, I don’t want to leave. I am forever grateful to be continuing my education as a graduate student.”
– Briana Tangredi, multi-year scholarship recipient and CSU Presidential Ambassador
Watch dreams come true as four D.V.M. students and 11 undergraduate students are surprised with the news that they’ve been awarded a scholarship. These students are an example of the incredibly dedicated, adaptable, and tenacious students who make the College of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Sciences, and CSU, proud every day. Thank you to generous donors for playing such an important role in our students’ success.

Because of You…
“If it was not for you, I would not be able to explore my field, study with amazing professors, or form those meaningful connections on campus. I have gained so much knowledge and confidence in myself while at CSU. These scholarships will help me keep my education going in graduate school. Thank you!” – Sarahy Quintana Trejo, Gil Gutierrez Memorial Scholarship
“Not only does your scholarship help me now, but it also has made me realize that providing for others is one of the kindest things you can to for those in need of help. I will pay this forward and help someone else pursue the dream you have provided for me and many others.” – Spencer Turner, The Lubick Foundation RamStrength Scholarship
“This award is a way for others to be involved in my educational journey with me. My family will always support me and my loved ones will cheer me on, but to also have scholarship donors support makes my world bigger, my responsibilities a little more serious, and my prospects even brighter.” – Conlin Buttermann, Harold B. and Sylvia F. Joy Scholarship
“By contributing to my education, you are contributing to the industry that feeds the world and for that I could not be more grateful. This scholarship will help provide me with the education I have always wanted.” – Aliya Blackwell, Niles and Dorothy Miller Scholarship
