Apply for Scholarships

Cuyahoga Community College has many scholarship opportunities available to Tri-C students, including merit-based awards for students who excel in the classroom, as well as awards to participate on Tri-C athletic teams, to serve on Student Government, and focused on success and completion. If you have not earned a postsecondary degree at any level (including abroad), we invite you to apply for scholarship opportunities.
