I really appreciate it a lot and it made a difference in my graduate education.” - Kendahl Kelly, MAPJ 2020 graduate, and recipient of the William Headley Endowed Scholarship ![](https://krocstories.sandiego.edu/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/71c04802-2003-41cc-b32c-6ac3fe79de22.jpg?width=450&height=301&name=71c04802-2003-41cc-b32c-6ac3fe79de22.jpg) *Kendahl Kelly and Bruno Boniface Onencan, MAPJ 2020 graduates and recipients of the William Headley Endowed Scholarship* ### **How Scholarships Make a Positive Impact for Students** The Kroc School believes the greatest investments are the ones we make in people with the passion and the courage to create change. Peacebuilders and social innovators should not be stopped in their journeys to create better societies because they do not have access to strategic networks, new knowledge and training.  ![](https://krocstories.sandiego.edu/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/10a98a90-9e9f-4183-a95c-f3f8ab1b1a4f.jpg?width=450&height=301&name=10a98a90-9e9f-4183-a95c-f3f8ab1b1a4f.jpg) *Cristina Dabdoub, MASI 2020 graduate and recipient of the Wasson Social Innovation Scholarship * Every gift, no matter the size, makes a big difference in the education of peacebuilders and social innovators. International students from conflict-affected and underdeveloped countries, as well as U.S. students from low-income families and struggling communities, are in great need of scholarship support. Scholarship funding makes a difference in their lives and the places they will serve.

Kroc School of Peace Studies (Kroc School) at the University of San Diego is the global hub for peacebuilding and social innovation. Founded in 2007, the Kroc School equips the next generation of innovative changemakers to shape more peaceful and just societies. We offer master's degrees in peace and justice, social innovation, humanitarian action, conflict management and resolution, and a dual degree in peace and law — programs that have attracted diverse and dynamic students from more than 50 countries. In addition to our graduate programs, the Kroc School is home to the Kroc Institute for Peace and Justice (Kroc IPJ). Founded in 2001, the Institute supports positive change beyond the classroom. Through groundbreaking research, experiential learning, and forward-thinking programs, the Kroc School and Kroc IPJ are shaping a future in which peaceful co-existence is the new normal. ![](https://krocstories.sandiego.edu/hubfs/KROC/%5BKROC%5D%20Photos/rmi-hex.svg) ## Request More Information Please complete the form below to learn more about the Kroc School graduate programs.
