Scholarship Fest

Scholarship Fest is the Official Cal Poly Pomona Scholarship application cycle! The cycle runs every October 1st through March 2nd for scholarships for the next academic year.


Cal Poly Pomona has over 400 scholarship opportunities to support our students’ educational goals. Funding for our scholarships has been provided by generous donors to Cal Poly Pomona who believe in higher education and your students' ability to achieve academic success.


The Bronco Scholarship Portal (BSP) allows students to apply for university scholarships via one application. The Office of Financial Aid & Scholarships coordinates the scholarship application and awarding process with core committees from the various colleges, departments and organizations responsible for selecting recipients.
