Eligibility

  • Be admitted to Cal Poly Pomona before applying through the Bronco Scholarship Portal.
  • Meet individual scholarship criteria, which may consider academics, financial need, career goals, service, affiliations or personal circumstances. There is no single campus-wide GPA threshold.

Requirements

  • Complete the general application and all scholarship-specific supplemental requirements. The published general application includes a personal statement; verify the current portal prompt because the FAQ essay heading still names the older 2026–27 cycle.

  • Submit FAFSA or CADAA for need-based consideration. Current university news describes resume/CV and recommendation uploads as optional; individual opportunities may have additional requirements.
  • Use the current Next Gen portal linked at the top of the official page; older AcademicWorks links remain in parts of the FAQ.

  1. 1Follow the official page's current Bronco Scholarship Portal link and sign in.
  2. 2Complete the general application, personal statement and matched opportunity requirements.
  3. 3Submit by March 2 for the main season and monitor campus email and the portal for award-specific tasks.
