Financial Aid

No Borders. No Boundaries. No Barriers to Success.

Dean Philip Williams of the College of Liberal Arts and Dean Daniel Bernard of Extended, Professional and Continuing Education envision providing a liberal arts education sin fronteras: without borders, without boundaries and without barriers.

It is equally important to both Cal Poly and Summer Springboard that this program is accessible to all who want to participate. As such, Summer Springboard @ Cal Poly has a pool of need-based scholarships available for our programs for qualifying applicants. Scholarships are awarded based on financial need as well as student achievement.

We will also award a Dean's Merit Scholarship to two outstanding students who meet our combined criteria of merit and need. We are now accepting applications for the Dean's Merit Scholarship. The application deadline is March 31.

You can review the requirements, and deadlines, and submit your application here: SSB @ Cal Poly Scholarships.
