We wish you a successful start to the new year amid these troubling times.

Click here to download the EVR template for the Fall Semester/Quarter 1 Term. There are a few minor changes to the current EVR template. We are now asking for the Estimated Cost of Attendance and any aid the scholars are receiving on a term basis versus an annual basis.

USCIS announced Monday that it will reject DACA renewal applications received more than 150 days before your current DACA expires.

To try to avoid this, we sent out this email to advise Scholars to prepare their DACA renewal application in advance of 150 days of its expiration so that they can mail their application ASAP after hitting the 150 day mark.

Our second annual Scholar Survey, which closed in June, had over 2,600 participants! This reflects an 11% increase in response rate compared to last year.

Thank you for driving participation! Every week we will share a key finding from the 2019-2020 Survey ahead of releasing the Scholar Survey Report.

We want to remind you that we have updated our National and Opportunity Program Guides with our full Scholarship policies, found here.

We have been receiving many inquiries from new Scholars about when they will receive their fall tuition payment and stipend (if applicable). Please direct them to the Guides in their Scholar Hub here.

As always, you may also contact our ISTS Helpdesk for PC inquiries: TheDream.US_Support@applyISTS.com

Camila Krzyzanowski de Jesus says she's grateful to be attending Rutgers University this fall, where she plans to major in business management. But without DACA, she won’t be able to drive herself to school, find a part-time job, interview for internships, study abroad and so much more, including eventually putting her degree to work.
