Cal Poly Pomona Scholarships
Undocumented Student Services (USS) is dedicated to student success by connecting all students to a variety of institutional and community scholarships and resources. All university programs, activities, and scholarships are open and available to all regardless of race, sex, color, ethnicity or national origin. Undocumented students may be eligible to file a California Dream Act Application (CADAA).
This scholarship honors students who have shown a strong commitment to both their education and their community as well as demonstrates financial need. It is open to all students who qualify for in-state tuition and demonstrate financial need as determined by the California Dream Act Application (CADAA) or the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Established in Spring 2006, this initiative was made possible through the vision and dedication of Ricardo Ortega, then President of the Mexican American Student Association, with the support of his family and friends. Their efforts continue to provide meaningful opportunities for students pursuing their academic and personal aspirations.
