TO APPLY
1. Complete the online application
Fill out a quick questionnaire.
You’ll need to provide your EAD card (work permit).
We’ll process your scholarship application the same day.

We’ll give you a $495 check made out to the Department of Homeland Security for your DACA renewal.
You can pick it up the same day or we can overnight it to the address you provide.
Scholarships are limited, so we encourage DACA recipients to take advantage of any support in their community, including from family and friends. DACA recipients facing financial hardship should APPLY ASAP. MAF may exhaust funds due to high demand, but we will continue to fundraise from foundations and individual donors. We will make sure to update our website if funds are exhausted and will likely shift to offering zero-interest renewal loans nationally.
Unfortunately, DACA recipients who have already applied for renewal are not eligible to be reimbursed through this scholarship.
