[CSL] First Ever eSports Scholarship!

The CSL is proud to announce the first ever scholarship for gaming!

Ever since the CSL was founded in Spring 2009, our goal has been to promote the growth of gaming in the US, to re-create the excitement of the thousands of fans in Korean stadiums watching the Proleague finals. College seemed like the best way to do it – we are all college students, we love Starcraft, and our friends love Starcraft: it made sense. After five successful seasons of the CSL, we started thinking more about what it means to be a student gamer. Universities award scholarships to students who are high level athletes as well as to students who work to benefit their community through leadership and service. Gaming should be no different – there should be scholarships given to exemplary students who work to promote gaming in and around their community and also prioritize their education.

We are happy to announce that CSL Head Administrator Duran “Xeris” Parsi will be donating $2,000 per year to two deserving students who are not only strong academically, but are also leaders in the gaming world, making this the first ever gaming scholarship. We hope that this will be the start of many more eSports scholarships.

For more details about the eSports scholarship, please see the announcement on the CSL website.

Scholarship applications will be accepted from now until May 20th, 2012. The winners will be announced LIVE at the CSL Grand Finals at UCF on June 3rd!




For more information on the CSL visit our website at: http://www.cstarleague.com

I wish I could be someone for which gaming and school aren't inversely proportional =/.

Excellent idea/initiative though.

Badass. Since it says Xeris will be donating and not CSL as an entity, does this mean it's out of pocket or..?

Is shindigs disqualified from this since he's part of CSL? Assuming he has a 3.5, I'd imagine he'd be easily one of the most qualified for this.

OMG, this is so cool, big kudos to CSL for putting together something like this, you guys rock.

Unfortunately I was never really good enough to play on my CSL team (they had plenty of actual good players, so not much room for a diamond scrub like myself), but it's been really cool to see the team grow over the last two years since it first started. Once I am able to return to school I hope I will be able to make more time for SC and maybe be more active with the CSL, truly one of the great Esports organizations I've had the pleasure to work with.

Oh, and CU Boulder fighting! ( I know we lost to Auburn in the Playoffs, but still great team)
I can take that responsibility.

Oh my goodness. I never expected to see a scholarship for gamers when I checked TL. Xeris and The CSL are models of what should come in the next five years of gaming in the US.
I can't wait to tell my fellow students about the new uprising of gaming, not only in the competitive nature but it's encouragement of higher education.

I 100% commend Xeris and the CSL, not just because I'll soon be heading into post secondary, but because this idea in generally is amazing. Adding scholarships to post secondary institutions is a HUGE step in legitimizing e-sports, just as academic and athletic scholarships legitimize those respective aspects at post secondary institutions.

Great job and hope it turns out well!

Great initiative!

Please give us a comprehensive interview with the winners when they are announced!
*edit: Maybe this would be better in the General forum? Having this in the SC2 section seems somewhat narrow-focused, as opposed to the large breadth and oversight suggested in the title "eSports Scholarship".

Good guy Xeris gives tuition money to nerds for supporting eSports. Careful tho, he'll apparently steal your seats at MLG.

It's out of my pocket. One day CSL will have money and it won't have to be out of my pocket (I hope). And ya, while Tim is an awesome candidate - he's graduating

Makes me sad tbh. Im not sure how many leaders in college, high GPA students, and good players all in one meet those requirements. @_@

Good luck to whoever wins this though, that money is a huge help ^_^

As someone who has started to become jaded with esports and sc2, I have to say this brings a smile to my face and warms my heart. Great job; I hope this can be sustained for many years to come.

Badass. Since it says Xeris will be donating and not CSL as an entity, does this mean it's out of pocket or..?

Is shindigs disqualified from this since he's part of CSL? Assuming he has a 3.5, I'd imagine he'd be easily one of the most qualified for this.

It's out of my pocket. One day CSL will have money and it won't have to be out of my pocket (I hope). And ya, while Tim is an awesome candidate - he's graduating

...not only strong academically, but are also leaders in the gaming world...


I can't help thinking that these two requirements are mutually exclusive. More practice time, less time to study. More study, less time to practice...

what throws me off is they want 3.5 gpa (not impossible) they players to be top tier at sc2, plus for them to be involved in the community at the university and public levels. but if you are any decent level of schooling, doing all three is nearly impossible. hell being good at sc2 AND getting a 3.5 gpa in say, a medical degree, is such a time taker compared to doing a community college degree in business.

seems neigh impossible for anyone random to win this award, I'm sure the money will go to known players that play for their csl team, and have sponsored team, and have a tons of friends backing them up, inside and outside of the csl. not saying they don't deserve it, just think its silly that the requirements pretty much mean if you aren't playing on a top 5 csl team you have no chance, even though ot may not even be your fault you cannot play in the csl.

Well the money is very limited so a demanding set of requirements makes sense. It's a scholarship, not charity ;\

I also have qualms about the GPA requirement, but at the end of the day it's not my/our money to decide. As you can see, the scholarship is under the name of Xeris so there are definitely more opportunities for more scholarships with a variety of requirements. This is just the first of many!

That would kind of defeat the purpose of a scholarship...

Also, I imagine that students involved in ESPORTS on an organizational level would be free to apply as well. The Rosen twins (organizers of Lone Star Clash) would definitely be solid candidates for this kind of scholarship.

This is actually not a skill based scholarship - nowhere in it does it say you need to be a top level player. This is first and foremost, a scholarship that rewards leadership.

Well, in the end we have to accept some people are super smart and can have the best of both worlds. I gave up SC2 during the schoolyear for grades. I figured I could only be good at one or the other at a time. (Good thing too, double labs is killing me, and wtf did I think pre-med/pre-bus was a good idea?) :/

Think about it this way, that scholarship money can go towards living expenses you'd otherwise have to work minimum wage to earn (or close to it) while going to school. Time not spent working some dead end retail job = more practice hours.

Wow that's amazing news. Should try and find a way to allow willing TLers to donate to the scholarship. I'd certainly consider it!

I'm especially impressed that you are looking for strong Academics AND Strong players. (if i had a dollar for every time I've seen an idiot athlete make a joke a class at my university....I'd be able to fund my own scholarship)

All right. Well. I guess stuff is cheaper in the US, because 2,000$ here in Denmark, if you're a student living alone, is something which you can barely live for in one month, if you work 6-7-8 hours a week, so.. if this was in Denmark, it really wouldn't make such a big difference, but I guess you can live longer/better for 2,000$ in USA.

How wouldn't two thousand dollars a year help someone fund their education? You'd have to work basically 300 hours at minimum wage to earn that money. That's 15 weeks at 20 hours a week, which is an entire semester.

I think its wonderful that Xeris is allowing 2 lucky academics the opportunity to use the game they love as a source of income over a useless minimum wage job making sandwiches or something.

What is a semesters tuition at a public university in denmark? I go to one of the most expensive universities in the US and it would still cover like 10% of my tuition. Which is basically what I would get covered if I worked a minimum wage job for 20 hours a week.

Wow what the..? 300 hours? In Denmark you would have to work (if you didn't study) 140 hours a month (and that is after 40% tax cut from your paycheck). But since you are studying, you'll get 1,100 dollars for free, and you even have the opportunity to loan 500 dollars at 1% interest from our government while studying. And then you have 1,600 dollars to live for, so to reach the 2000 dollars you have to work like 40 hours a month at minimum wage - that was why I was curious to it.

But as stated above, it seems like stuff is way different in USA than here. Thank god I live in Denmark.

yea minimum wage you basically take home $100 for every 15 hours you work. Idn dude, sounds like you get a lot more government hand outs than a non financial aid qualifying US student. $1100 dollars a month getting paid to you for being a student is quite a lot of money.

I get 0 federal dollars towards my 25k a semester tuition. Then you figure in my $720 in rent a month and my ~$50 a week on groceries. My part time job gives me like $600 a month, and thankfully my parents can support me while i study, but there are plenty of people less fortunate.

Either way, What Xeris is doing is nothing but commendable!

So you literally just get paid $1100 a month for going to school? And your only expenses are housing and food? That's pretty wild man, absolutely not similar to the experience of a typical American University student.

Think about it this way, that scholarship money can go towards living expenses you'd otherwise have to work minimum wage to earn (or close to it) while going to school. Time not spent working some dead end retail job = more practice hours.


All right. Well. I guess stuff is cheaper in the US, because 2,000$ here in Denmark, if you're a student living alone, is something which you can barely live for in one month, if you work 6-7-8 hours a week, so.. if this was in Denmark, it really wouldn't make such a big difference, but I guess you can live longer/better for 2,000$ in USA.

Yes. Well.. yea, I also have expenses like internet, cellphone, tv and such. But yes, if I would, I could live for only the governmental support which I get from studying.

EDIT: We have to pay for our own books, which is really the only thing which isn't free at danish university educations.

I might e wrong but isn't there certain conditions like they get paid to go to school but there must be some obligation after to stay in the country I'm pretty sure they don't just pay for your educatiOn and let you just leave right after

Xeris, you are again and always an extreme nerd baller.

I love this 100%. Isn't this not the first eSports scholarship though? I remember seeing something at the last Redbull LAN where Walshy gave a scholarship to a student. I remember him saying that he wasn't able to go to college himself but how cool it was that he could help someone else do it.

Err, unless I'm doing my math wrong, you pay $20K a year. That's nowhere near "the most expensive" for a university in the US. Even per semester (for a total of ~$40K a year, that's still on the lower side of expensive). Most of the top schools cost around $50K, though they'll make excuses like X percent receive Y amount of financial aid.

If you're including a scholarship, then that would be worth mentioning. For example, in my case, my school costs ~$55K on paper, but I pay a bit under 20 with merit scholarships (or otherwise I wouldn't be here).

Of course, there's a whole bunch of good to middling schools which are much cheaper, or will actually pay you to go there given you're good enough.

67k/year for grad school high five! where's your grad school scholarship program T_T
lol jk, but in all seriousness

I'm really glad that Duran is promoting academic achievement. Starcraft and E-Sports is a great industry, but for the most part a lot of people are high school and college-age students. While I'm not saying that focusing on a gaming career is bad, this is an environment where a lot of young students often might make brash decisions. I've seen quite a lot of threads about whether or not someone should drop out of school to focus on gaming. I hope this scholarship program motivates a lot of people to achieve both in gaming and academics for their bright futures c:

Does that mean 1000$ a year?
Can you really live of that in the US?

Isn't it, that either you have to work and study to cover your expenses, or have a financially rich background, in that case you will laugh about 1000$ - your parents rather see you study harder that go professional gaming.

I'm sure this was clarified earlier, but its obvious that this scholarship is not a full ride. In fact, many scholarships you apply to as a continuing undergraduate are rarely full rides. The amount awarded here is pretty standard actually, I'm surprised Xeris managed to match current continuing scholarship rates.

Getting an extra $1000 a year helps. That's one semester of overpriced books (which will soon be reduced!) that you don't have to worry about. That's possibly a decent amout of food money. That's a new laptop that can last you your entire college career if you buy smart. Its all the little things that will add up. The application process is not too taxing either!

Xeris and Hazelynut are awesome. I actually had the pleasure of meeting Hazelynut at MLG, great person and it's so wonderful to see the two of them step up in this way.


Did she make you dance bubble pop?
Thank God and gunrun.
