The Center for Leadership & Social Change invites students to apply for the Martin Luther King, Jr. Book Stipend Award, a collaboration with the Office of the Vice President for Student Affairs and the Black Alumni Association.

The purpose of the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Book Stipend Award is to assist Florida State University students in completing their education. The stipends are available on a competitive basis to both undergraduate and graduate students. Awards of $350 will be issued to winners during the fall semester of the following academic year. Due to the volume of applicants, any student who has been awarded the book stipend in the past may not apply again.
