As the Official Banking Partner of the UCLA Alumni Association, Wescom Credit Union believes in building better lives for all Bruins. Consistent with Wescom's commitment to the diverse Bruin community, we are thrilled to announce the Wescom Foundation UCLA Alumni Diversity Network Scholarship program. This year, the program will provide $50,000 in scholarships to students selected by the following groups: UCLA American Indian Alumni Association; UCLA Asian Pacific Alumni Scholarship Fund; UCLA Black Alumni Association Scholarship Fund; Pilipino Alumni Association Scholarship Endowment; Lambda Alumni Association Scholarship Fund; UCLA Latino Alumni Association Endowed Scholarship Fund; UCLA Mixed Alumni Association Scholarship; UCLA Undocumented Alumni Association Scholarship Fund; UCLA First Gen Alumni Network Scholarship Fund; UCLA Campus Life Administration Steinmetz Veteran Scholarship; and, UCLA Muslim Alumni Association Scholarship.
Wescom recognizes that discrimination and systemic inequality can hinder successful outcomes for BIPOC (Black, indigenous, and people of color), underrepresented, and disadvantaged students, and that a college education is often a pathway to greater economic opportunities. Wescom is dedicated to removing financial barriers to a higher education and helping Bruins achieve their dreams.
The Wescom Foundation is honored to support the diverse network of students who help make UCLA the number one public university in the nation. Our hope is that this scholarship program helps students overcome financial obstacles, reach their goals, and build healthy financial futures.
