The once-a-year application process for scholarships is now open. The deadline for applying is April 15. Students can access the online application via delaGATE (Financial Aid/Additional Resources), which links to the DCCC Educational Foundation page or through Admissions and Financial Aid on the public website, which also links to the Foundation website.
Effective Summer 2013, financial aid eligibility for both Summer I and Summer II terms will be determined on the basis of students’ FAFSAs filed for the current 2012-2013 aid year. This is important for students to know if they plan to use any portion of their 2012-2013 aid, which may be left over from the fall and spring terms, to help pay for summer courses. While most students use their financial aid for the regular academic year, some do opt to save a portion of their award for summer, and this change could affect them.
