UC Merced Named an AmeriCorps Partner!

January 24, 2022

#CaliforniansForAll CollegeCorps

For the past 2 years, UC Merced has been an AmeriCorps partner, and for the first time, we are proud to announce that this will now include AB 540 eligible Dreamers in a state service program.

We are proud to announce that our school, UC Merced, was one of the California colleges and universities to be selected as an AmeriCorps partner for the next academic year. The #CaliforniansForAll CollegeCorps, also known as AmeriCorps, is the first state-funded service opportunity for AB540 eligible Dreamers, helping to make college more affordable for thousands of California students by allowing them to receive up to $10,000 towards their education when they commit to serve for a year.
