Central Scholarship Bureau (CSB) has been the most helpful and warm organization I have ever encountered. I never witnessed an organization that gladly assisted every individual in the same manner as CSB. I always knew they were available to guide me in each step of the process. Honestly, I thought CSB really liked me through their friendly email correspondences. But when I began discussing CSB with a friend, they jumped to the same complements which I was thinking of at the same time.
Whenever necessary, I feel comfortable stopping by the CSB office with anything. Without CSB, I wouldn't be as accomplished as I am today. Thank you CSB!
Keep up the outstanding work!

Although there are so many, try to have more scholarships (even if they are smaller amounts).

CSB's generous assistance enabled me to attend graduate school and change careers to join a field I had a long-standing interest in. CSB provided me with $5k in interest-free loans and a $5k scholarship. I was very impressed by the simple application process and the very down-to-earth people who are involved in the organization. The organization aims to assist students with varied backgrounds who live in Maryland, and they attract students with amazing life stories who are willing to work hard and be dedicated to their calling. I highly recommend CSB.

Central Scholarship Bureau was an unexpected, but extremely beneficial award that alleviated the strains funding a full-time college education. I discovered CSB before my sophomore year, in the midst of my transition into a new university. With less time spent worrying about finances or taking out an absurd amount of loans, I can devote more time to my studies and just having a truly enjoyable college experience. Above all else, it's evident CSB genuinely cares for students and education issues. Thanks so much for everything CSB!

Central Scholarship Bureau is a prime example of an organization that cares about education and helping our future leaders in ways that in many instances may not have seemed possible. In short, they are helping me make my dreams come true. I found CSB as a sophomore in college and was fortunate enough to be granted a scholarship and interest free loan to help alleviate the cost of my college expense. The next two years I was selected to be a Meyerhoff Maryland Scholar. The Meyerhoff Foundation Partnered with CSB to create a program that helped numerous middle class students that were struggling financially. I do not know how I would have made it through my undergraduate experience with out the help of CSB. Not only do they help financially, but all the staff truly care about their students well being and success. Everything is very personal and everyone knows who you are. I think this is so important. To put a name to a face and go that extra step. It is my goal to be on the other side of the fence with organization and to give back to the community and the future leaders of this country in the years to come. I am indebted to them for what they have done for me and I am truly thankful for all they continue to do to make things possible for students that would have otherwise thought a secondary education was an option.

The wonderful non-profit organization that is the Central Scholarship Bureau (CSB) has not only made my college education affordable, but also made the my college experience irrevocably sumptuous and beneficial. The planned events both in Baltimore and Owings Mills have allowed me to get to know fellow students and learn more about the true diversity that the CSB caters to! Without the help of Central Scholarship, I do not think I would have been able to complete 4 full years of college, and now I have done so without the financial stress and anguish that most college students struggle with. I am truly blessed to be apart of this giving and nurturing organization and am thankful for all that the CSB has done for me, both as a student and a person.

The Central Scholarship Bureau (CSB) helped inspire me to give back to the community. I was able to focus on issues centering women, children, and immigrants. A CSB scholarship helped alleviate my financial burden and allowed me to focus on my studies and community projects. CSB not only financially assists students with financial aid and scholarships, they also encourage and require a strong focus on giving back to the community.

Central Scholarship Bureau has helped me significantly. They have allowed me to focus on my studies without worrying about getting a job to support myself through school. I have accrued a very large number of loans because of the steep tuition and it is a wonderful feeling to be able to enjoy receiving the education that one needs to pursue their dream. Central Scholarship Bureau has allowed me to do this and at the same time excel at it.

CSB provided me with an interest free loan for my undergraduate education before I even understood how loan repayment would affect me post-college. Now that I'm a year into my independence, I am very grateful for their help. Repayment has been very easy and they are very responsive when I contact them.
