Nearly a million people of all ages, economic status and ethnic backgrounds recognize College of DuPage as a vital educational resource for anyone in pursuit of self-betterment.
Today, College of DuPage is the largest single-campus community college in the nation. Beginning in 1967 with less than 3,000 students, it now serves close to 60,000 students each year. Of the nearly 700,000 residents who have attended the college, two-thirds continue to live and work in the community.
The College faces many exciting challenges: staying abreast of technology, remaining current with career trends, and deepening a commitment to educating a workforce for jobs that don’t yet exist.
The College also faces another challenge: more and more students are requiring financial assistance while federal student aid programs are decreasing.
Fortunately, thanks to the generosity of many local individuals, businesses, private foundations and alumni, College of DuPage can continue to offer a wide range of meaningful and accessible scholarships.
Without the financial commitments of key individuals and businesses, College of DuPage could not have become the dynamic educational resource it is today.For more information on scholarships, e-mail Financial Aid.
