San Antonio College will help undocumented students apply for college scholarships during an online workshop 3:30 to 5 p.m. Tuesday, March 2. Students can register in advance using Zoom.

The Dream.US, the nation’s largest college access and success program for immigrant youth, is providing scholarships to pay for school. The scholarships are open to Dreamers who came to the United States before Nov. 1, 2015 and who are high school students, first time college students, or current college students. The scholarships support students who meet DACA eligibility.

However, students need to apply soon. The national scholarship application deadline is Thursday, March 4.
