Transition Advantage Scholarship

The Transition Advantage Scholarship helps you pay for college tuition at Central Community College. It is available during your first year as a full-time student. This scholarship helps you start strong and save money.

The scholarship covers up to 12 credit hours of tuition in the fall semester. If you meet progress standards, you can earn funding for 6 more credits in the spring. This scholarship pays tuition only. It does not cover fees, books, housing or meals.

Who Can Qualify?

You may qualify for this scholarship if you:

  • Earned a grade of C or higher in at least 12 CCC credit hours before high school graduation
  • Completed all 12 CCC credits before graduating
  • Enroll as a full-time CCC student within one year of high school graduation
  • Are a U.S. citizen, an eligible non-citizen or a DACA-eligible student

Tech Prep or high school articulation credits do not count toward the 12 required credits.

Do Certain High School Classes Count?

No. Your CCC credits can be in general education, technical programs or a mix of both.
