Just one application is all you need to be considered for one of the many scholarships Tri-C has to offer.
Cuyahoga Community College is committed to making higher education both affordable and accessible. While a college education is a significant investment, scholarships provide an excellent way to reduce costs. Unlike student loans, scholarships are gift funds that do not need to be repaid. By taking advantage of scholarship opportunities, eligible students can lessen the financial burden of college, begin classes sooner, and complete their programs more quickly while staying focused on their goals.
If you are interested in applying, be sure to complete the admissions requirements, submit the 2026–2027 FAFSA, and fill out the general scholarship application. Returning students must have a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.0, new and returning students should enroll in at least six credit hours per semester and remain enrolled for the full term. Be sure to monitor your application status by regularly checking your Tri-C email for updates.
For questions, contact Student Financial Aid and Scholarships at 216-987-6000, option #2, or email financialaid@tri-c.edu.
Financial Education virtual workshops are available weekly.
Disclaimer: Current Tri-C employees, visiting, non-degree seeking, and College Credit Plus students are ineligible to apply.
