Sponsor textbooks for students in need, alleviating the financial burden of educational materials. One of the most effective and highly valued academic resources on the Fresno State campus is the Learning Center. By employing research-driven strategies, the Learning Center helps students improve their understanding of course content and enhance their grades. Through free online and in-person tutoring and academic coaching, thousands of students each semester take significant steps toward achieving their college goals. The Learning Center is a hidden gem on campus, responsible for countless academic turnarounds and playing a key role in helping students stay in school and complete their degrees. Your support will allow us to continue providing the latest materials and innovative learning approaches for our dedicated Bulldogs.
Support our students who are parents with funds that address a variety of needs, such as our diaper program and school supplies for children. Your support will help the 1 in 5 students who are raising kids at the same time that they are pursuing their education. 40% of parenting students report feeling disconnected from their college community, and 20% feel unwelcome on their campuses.
Support our Veterans Pursuing an Education. At Fresno State, the Veterans Resource Center is committed to helping veterans, reservists, guard members, active-duty service members, and their dependents access financial support for their educational journeys. After being admitted to Fresno State, our center uses various VA educational programs, including scholarships, grants, and other forms of financial assistance. Our website offers detailed information on these programs and step-by-step instructions on how to apply them at Fresno State. We take great pride in supporting our veterans and their families, ensuring they have the financial resources to succeed academically. We honor their sacrifices and value their life experiences, which enrich our university community with diversity and strength.
