Funded by the Pasadena Community Foundation and supported by College Access Plan (CAP) and PCC Pathways, the PCF Scholars Program offers need-based financial assistance and long-term mentoring. Scholars receive help with tuition-related expenses, access to emergency funds, and guidance from counselors and coaches. Success is defined not only by timely graduation or transfer, but also by persistence, progression, and motivation to set and meet goals.
“PCF Scholars helped me feel less alone as a first-generation student navigating the challenges of college, and provided me with resources to reach my goals.” ~ Ximena, program participant
