Significant Benefits
The program provides substantial benefits, including:
- Alleviating the financial burden of higher education for selected scholars
- Encouraging the region's brightest to pursue their degrees locally
- Counteracting the concerning “brain drain” in our Valley
By cultivating committed young professionals, we aim to enhance the quality of life in the Coachella Valley.
Impact on the Campus Community
- With 10-15 outstanding students in each incoming freshman class, we anticipate an improvement in academic performance at PDC, benefiting the entire campus community.
- Scholars will take on leadership roles, fostering community service and enriching the student life experience.
Ultimately, the University Legacy Scholars will serve as the foundation for a future Honors College, creating a vibrant academic environment at PDC.
