About Us

At Cal Poly Pomona, students Become by Doing. The Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships is committed to helping students and their families access the financial resources, guidance, and support needed to pursue a Cal Poly Pomona education and take full advantage of the hands-on learning experiences that define our university.

We administer federal, state, institutional, and scholarship programs in accordance with applicable policies and regulations while providing accurate, responsive, and student-centered service. Our team works closely with campus partners and the broader community to connect students with opportunities that help reduce financial barriers and support their academic and personal success.

As partners in the student journey, we strive to create pathways to opportunity so that students can focus on learning, growing, and achieving their goals. By helping students navigate the financial aspects of college, we support the university's mission of empowering every Bronco to Become by Doing.
