Eligibility is based on other financial aid resources but not student expected contribution. Grant funds are provided to partially pay the tuition charge for students that have been certified by one of the 13 western states that participate in this program. These scholarships are merit based. This year we have 14 SCCO students on this program. Note - Most of the scholarships and awards listed in the catalog are awarded at a program held in the Fall called Convocation.
Students apply with an essay or application are chosen by a scholarship committee.
The Financial Aid Office will let you know of other scholarship opportunities through the College weekly newsletter, In-House or posting in the financial aid office. The FWS program provides jobs for students who would like to earn part of their educational expenses. The deadline for turning SCCO financial aid forms is in mid-June. For questions and additional information contact one of the Financial Aid staff members at 714.449.7447 or 714.449.7448.
