TCC Foundation Scholarships

Scholarship award offers are sent to your TCC student email account. You can also see your offers in your Award Spring account once an offer is made.

TCC Foundation scholarships are included in your financial aid package. TCC Foundation scholarships apply directly toward tuition and fees in your ctcLink account.

Scholarships greater than $750 are split evenly among Fall/Winter/Spring, while scholarships of $750 or less are applied in a single quarter. 

Sorry, TCC Foundation scholarships are for students who will attend TCC only.
