Scholarships

A large number of scholarships, ranging from $500 to $2,500, are offered to SCC students by businesses, civic organizations, service clubs, individual donors, and the State of North Carolina. Scholarships are awarded to students who have demonstrated above-average academic ability, exhibit financial need, or are pursuing particular careers.

To qualify for scholarships, students should apply to or be accepted at SCC and complete the FAFSA application prior to scholarship awarding.

All scholarships require at least a 3.0 GPA, with a few exceptions. Applicants must maintain full-time student status (12 or more credits) at SCC each semester if awarded a scholarship. In most cases, when scholarships are awarded, financial need is secondary to academic achievement. Some scholarships are designed for students in specific programs or from designated high schools.

All scholarship amounts are based on available funds each year, and some amounts may vary. A scholarship application is required.

Interested persons should contact the
Financial Aid Office for details.

Note: The General Scholarship Application is currently closed. Please check back for future application dates or contact the Financial Aid Office for more information.
