Who May Be Considered For Financial Aid?

In order to comply with general federal eligibility provisions at the College, students must:

  • be U.S. citizens or eligible non-citizens with appropriate documentation;
  • have a high school diploma, a GED certificate, or complete a home school program at a secondary level;
  • be enrolled in a declared eligible certificate or degree program at CCC;
  • maintain satisfactory academic progress;
  • certify that they are not in default on a federal student loan and that they do not owe money on a federal student grant.

Students who do not meet the U.S. citizenship or eligible non-citizen requirement may still be eligible for state and institutional aid. More information can be found on The Oregon Student Aid Application (ORSAA) website.

In order to receive aid, students must complete application materials (including the FAFSA® or ORSAA) each year, be eligible according to applicable criteria, and be enrolled in and attend credit classes at the College.
