Welcome

Dallas College Promise covers the cost of tuition at Dallas College for up to three years or the completion of an associate degree (whichever comes first). Tuition is paid for up to five years or degree completion for students who pursue a bachelor’s at Dallas College.

Promise Scholars will also be matched with a success coach who will serve as a mentor to help students beginning at the end of their senior year through to college completion.

 

About Dallas College Promise

Seniors in Promise high schools planning to attend Dallas College are eligible to become Promise Bound. To qualify, they must meet all Promise deadlines including completing the Promise Path form.

Once you complete an associate degree (two-year) at Dallas College, you are eligible to transfer to Dallas College Promise partner four-year universities, with your last-dollar scholarship guaranteed contingent on meeting income and GPA requirements. Or you can stay at Dallas College and pursue a bachelor’s in education or nursing (available now) or applied technology (coming soon). Some partner four-year universities also have options for you to attend directly after graduating high school.
