Scholarship Recipients

Each year the Alfredo Santiago Endowed Scholarship makes it possible for many students to attend college. Each spring LEAP Academy seniors planning to enroll at Rutgers campuses apply for the scholarship and the winners are announced at LEAP’s graduation ceremonies.

With the generosity of TD Bank (formerly Commerce Bank), LEAP graduates attending other colleges are also eligible to receive aid through the TD Bank Alfredo Santiago Scholarship. Since LEAP’s first graduating class in 2005, 25 LEAP alumni have received the scholarships:
