A few key items to note:

  • You no longer have to run a report and then copy and paste it into a separate template.
  • The Enrollment Verification Report will only populate Scholars currently attending your PC and who are Eligible.
  • The Partner College Report is still available to you and will serve as a historical report of every Scholar who has ever enrolled at your PC.

Meeting with Scholars & Swag Distribution

ATTN: Scholar Advisors


This term, we are sending TheDream.US swag packages to your campus so that you can distribute our branded items to your new and returning Scholars. For those who requested, by mid-September, you will receive drawstring bags to give to new Scholars, and pens and stickers to give to both new and returning Scholars.


These giveaways are good for orientations, one-on-one advisement sessions, or monthly workshops. It not only lets Scholars feel that they are part of TheDream.US community but also helps spread the word about our Scholarship on your campus.


You will receive a follow-up email from Chris Aviles with instructions and tracking numbers. Email him with any questions at chris.aviles@thedream.us.
