Scholarship Application

If the scholarship criteria require a recommendation, the Financial Aid office will pursue the recommendation with the appropriate Department Dean/Chair. Do not include written recommendations with this application.

The Financial Aid Office strongly advises all students to apply for aid even if their interest is only to receive a scholarship. Based on a survey, most scholarship recipients do qualify for additional aide (Federal and/or State Grants - Free $$$$). The FAFSA may be filed online at www.fafsa.ed.gov. Please indicate CCM Federal School Code 007106 when filing.
