Illinois DREAM Fund Commission Scholarship

The IL Dream Fund Commission has raised $500,000, which will be used to fund scholarships to eligible undocumented students. Applicants who are in their senior year of high school must have a GPA of 2.50 and an ACT of 17. Current college students should have a 2.50 GPA in their field of study. 

Students attending a 2-yr or 4-yr college will be eligible to apply for $2,000 or $6,000 scholarships, respectively.

The scholarship application should be available on the Dream Fund website: http://www.illinoisdreamfund.org/ on November 1.
