Your support of the Achievement Award Program (TAAP) provides high-achieving students with significant financial need with the resources to excel at Berkeley.
Your contribution to this fund ensures that outstanding Cal students have access to a world-renowned education by helping to fund scholarships.
The eligibility criteria for TAAP includes California residency and a 3.0 GPA, but the determining factors for selection emphasize community service, volunteerism, ambition, and leadership abilities. Approximately 100 new and continuing students receive the scholarship each year. Many TAAP students come from low-income communities with an average annual family income of $22,998. Of the more than 260 students who received TAAP funding in the past 10 years, 71 percent are first-generation college students and 59 percent are underrepresented minorities.
