The PCC Foundation awards hundreds of scholarships every year to students who may not otherwise be able to afford an education.
The next PCC Foundation scholarship opens on November 1, 2024. Applications will be due February 1, 2025.
Applying is easy! Follow these steps to be automatically considered for hundreds of scholarships.
Start working on these pieces right away – especially your essays. When you complete your scholarship application you’ll have everything you need!
Each essay can be up to 350 words. (Some scholarships will ask for additional essays on the application.)
You can provide an optional reference for bonus points. References can be teachers, faculty, staff, mentors, coaches, employers, etc. The application will send an automated email to your reference, but you may want to let them know beforehand to expect a request.
Our free scholarship workshops will help you create a competitive scholarship application.
The scholarship application guide is a step-by-step website that helps with essay writing, asking for references, and more.
Our College Success classes will help you thrive while at PCC and beyond. For example, Scholarships: $$ for College is offered almost every term and will take you through the entire process of searching for scholarships.
Any student who plans to attend PCC can apply. We have scholarships for students of all ages, backgrounds, and majors! All PCC scholarships are open to anyone regardless of race, color, religion, national origin, disability, veteran status, age, sexual orientation, or any other status protected by federal, state, or local law in any area, activity, or operation of the college.
We let applicants know the results in June 2024. We send notifications to your MyPCC email. Scholarship money will be available to use at any time during the academic 2024-25 year. You can use foundation scholarships to pay for tuition, fees, and books. See more information on paying with a scholarship.
