How do you FALCON* to achieve your academic goals?
We want to hear your story about how you achieve academic success. Don’t create a grocery list of the 6 FALCON skills; instead, tell a detailed story about how one or two of those FALCON skills have helped you achieve success in a specific class or assignment, or how they have helped you identify weak study habits and turn them around.
*(Check out the website www.cerritos.edu/ifalcon for the 6 FALCON skills that lead to academic success.)
You’ll need this short essay and a copy of your Cerritos College transcripts (unofficial transcripts are acceptable). Apply online at the Cerritos College Foundation’s website:

Indicate whether you are applying for either the Focus or Advance scholarship. Open to AB 540 students.
