External Scholarships

From its inception, the goal of the Caribbean Leadership Empowerment Foundation (CLEF) has been to provide support and guidance to students of the Caribbean diaspora. One of their biggest initiatives in achieving this goal is to present an academic scholarship to deserving international students and students of Caribbean descent.

The scholarships are awarded by the Caribbean Leadership Empowerment Foundation Inc. to current undergraduate students attending NYC institutions. Recipients will be selected on the basis of their academic performance in college, financial need, and potential for serving as a good representative of their community/country.

The Caribbean Leadership Empowerment Foundation (C.L.E.F) is now accepting applications for the 2021 Scholarship!!

1. Unofficial Transcript
2. 500-1000 Word Personal Statement
