The CCAC Transfer Office has a large, financial aid reference binder available to students. This reference contains financial aid information for numerous four-year colleges and universities. Another excellent source of financial aid and scholarship information is Phi Theta Kappa, the International Honor Society for Two-Year Colleges. Phi Theta Kappa literally opens the door to an enormous variety of scholarship opportunities for the two-year college student, stated Nick Duerlinger, CCAC North mathematics professor and Phi Theta Kappa advisor. The Phi Theta Kappa Scholarship Directory provides all the necessary information that a member needs to apply for any of the organization s scholarships.
Students can also access a wide variety of financial aid information via the Internet.
The single greatest source for scholarship information available today is the Internet, said Sharon Platt, Director of Financial Aid at North Campus. Platt also advises CCAC students preparing to transfer to check with any prospective colleges and universities to see what types of financial aid and scholarships they offer incoming students.
