DREAMers Support

At Diablo Valley College, we recognize the dignity and value of the individual and continuously strive to provide opportunities for all those who seek an education.

DVC offers extensive information, resources and support for undocumented students. These resources are maintained by the DVC DREAMers Alliance, a network of faculty, staff, students, and administrators committed to providing a safe, supportive and welcoming educational environment for undocumented students.

Undocumented students may apply for financial aid by completing the California Dream Act Application. If you need assistance or have questions, contact Harry Do, Financial Aid Specialist, at hdo@dvc.edu.
