The Ontario's Community College Promise was established in 2016 for students who have been residents of the City of Ontario for the two year period prior to high school graduation and who do not qualify for the California Community Colleges Board of Governors (BOG) Fee Waiver Program. The award covers up to two years of tuition at a California Community College. Awards are on a last dollar basis. The program is funded by the Ontario-Montclair Schools Foundation and the Ontario City Council.
