Setting up a Mesa Scholarship

Thank you for your interest in establishing a scholarship through Mesa College! Your investment will help hardworking students achieve their educational goals.

Setting Up a Scholarship

Creating a scholarship is a unique way to leave a philanthropic legacy of opportunity and open a pathway to success for current and future Mesa students. By establishing a scholarship, you can:

name the scholarship in your name or in the name of a loved one
choose who you want to help
pick criteria for the scholarship based on your interests

With a pledge of at least $500 a year for at least 5 years, you can establish a scholarship in just two steps:

- Step 1: Tell Us About Your Scholarship
  Complete a form that will detail all the guidelines for your scholarship.
  Set Up Scholarship

- Step 2: Pledge Support and Fund Your Scholarship
  Scholarships range greatly with a minimum award of $500 and no maximum award. In order to establish your scholarship, we request a commitment of at least $500 a year for at least 5 years. You do not need to provide all of the funds immediately, but we do ask for a pledge commitment. Our scholarship cycle opens in December each year, and scholarships must be funded by November in order to be available to students.
  PLEDGE MY COMMITMENT

Once you have completed your pledge, you are welcome to begin funding your scholarship. For more information on how to give, please click here. If you would like to donate by credit card, please contact the Office of Resource Development to be provided a unique link to give to your scholarship. Please contact Heidi Brogren at hbrogren@sdccd.edu or (619) 388-2285.
