Scholarship Description

At Dream.US, we believe in turning dreams into reality, especially for highly motivated undocumented students facing significant financial barriers. Our National Scholarship is more than just a financial aid; it's a pathway for you to overcome challenges, pursue higher education, and make a positive impact on your community.

Key Features of the National Scholarship:

• Pell Grant Equivalent: Think of our National Scholarship as the "Pell Grant" for undocumented students with remarkable determination and substantial financial need. • Holistic Evaluation: While we consider your GPA, greater emphasis is placed on your commitment to community service and your resilience in overcoming the unique challenges faced by undocumented students.

Eligibility Criteria: Our National Scholarship is open to undocumented immigrant students, with or without DACA or TPS, who meet the following criteria:

• Early Arrival: Came to the U.S. before the age of 16 and before November 1, 2017. • Financial Need: Demonstrated significant, unmet financial need. • Renewable Award: The award is renewable each year, contingent upon meeting continuing eligibility criteria.

Empowerment Through Education:

• Over 80 Partner Colleges: Dream.US has partnered with more than 80 colleges across the U.S., committed to serving undocumented students. These colleges provide the necessary support services to help you navigate your college journey successfully. • Dedicated Scholar Advisors: Each Partner College designates a Scholar Advisor who works with you individually and as a group. You're not alone; we're here to guide you every step of the way.

Application Process: Embark on your educational journey by applying for the Dream.US National Scholarship. Your commitment to community service, resilience, and academic aspirations can unlock opportunities beyond financial aid.
