The Puente Project is a one-year transfer program open to all students. The content of the Puente Project focuses on Mexican American/Latino authors and issues.

The program includes writing instruction in developmental and transfer level English composition, complemented by both an in-class counselor and a community mentor. Puente students also take part in regular and state-wide conferences and workshops, as well as visit universities and meet university representatives in preparation for transfer.

The Bureau of Indian Affairs awards grants to needy students who possess at least 25 percent American Indian, Eskimo or Aleut blood as recognized by a tribal group.
