Mills College Promise

Mills has created special initiatives to support young women from East Bay public high schools as they transition to college and during their journey at Mills, including:
  • The Mills Promise Leadership Academy that helps students get ready for college;
  • An academic success team that assists students in navigating college and pursuing their dreams;
  • Individual ePortfolio websites to showcase each student’s learning;
  • A personal research or creative project mentored by outstanding faculty; and
  • Career services including career coaching, Mills alumnae mentoring, and visits to local companies and organizations.
Mills Promise Scholarships
As part of our commitment to our partner schools, Mills will provide a minimum financial aid scholarship of $7,000 to every Berkeley, Richmond, and West Contra Costa high school student (public and charter) admitted in fall 2019 with a minimum high school GPA of 3.2. Higher scholarship amounts may be offered to admitted students with higher GPAs.
