John Greenleaf Whittier Scholarship Program
Academically eligible students will be invited to participate in our Greenleaf Scholarship Program which gives students the opportunity to compete for additional scholarship monies beyond any academic award they have already received. Invitations are sent on a rolling basis beginning in November.
Financial Aid
Eligible students can apply for and receive additional financial aid via the California Dream Act. For more information about eligibility and how to apply, click here.
