Scholarship Program
    The scholarships awarded to students are intended to bridge the financial gap between the student’s need and financial aid award from the college. The funds further enable low-income students with few financial resources to handle unexpected and emergency expenses.

    PACT was the recipient of an anonymous gift, which at this time will be used as seed funds for PACT’S permanent scholarship endowment fund.
