Simpson College has created a scholarship grant for
DACA/undocumented students called the Access Grant. The grant would
provide one first year students with a full tuition scholarship (meaning
we would cover everything except room and board) and additional $$$ for
some smaller scholarships ranging from $10,000-$15,000.
Eligibility Requirements:
· Be admitted to Simpson College
· Be a first-year student
· Identify as a DACA recipient or undocumented status
· 3.25 cumulative GPA

The application can be found on our website. Here is the direct link to the application.
Please
feel free to share this with high school counselors or colleagues who
work with these communities. Folks can reach out to Madeline Cano
directly with any questions at madeline.cano@simpson.edu.
Students may apply for the scholarship if they are considering Simpson.
Only students who have been fully admitted to Simpson will be
considered for an award. Deadline is February 1st.
