Scholarships

Craven Community College offers a variety of scholarships.  Most are based on financial need and academic achievement.  Scholarship applications should be completed in early spring for the next academic year.  Criteria and award amounts are determined by the sponsors and are subject to change.  Contact the Financial Aid Office for additional information and requirements.  Most scholarships should be used first to charge tuition, fees and books.  If the student is to receive any unused portion, the disbursement will be mailed at the 50 percent of the semester.

A student may apply for all of the scholarships listed below by completing a General Scholarship application.  Students who have not submitted a Student Aid Report, determining eligibility for Federal Student Aid, must also complete a financial statement to be considered for any need-based scholarships.
