Ohlone Promise

    The Ohlone Promise was established in 2013 for high school seniors living in the Tri-City area (Fremont, Newark and Union City) and attending a high school in the Fremont Unified School District, Newark Unified School District or the New Haven Unified School District. The award provides $3600 for two years worth of tuition, books and enrollment fees at Ohlone College. Students must meet need-based and merit requirements. Awards are on a last dollar basis. The program is funded by many individuals and foundations.
