  • Scholarship Program

    SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM: ALTHOUGH THE COLLEGE'S TUITION IS THE LOWEST IN NORTHEAST OHIO, THERE ARE STUDENTS IN OUR COMMUNITY WHO, WITHOUT FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE, CANNOT ACCESS OR CONTINUE THEIR EDUCATION, ESPECIALLY THOSE PURSUING A SHORT-TERM CERTIFICATE THAT IS INELIGIBLE FOR FEDERAL AID. SCHOLARSHIPS ENABLE THOUSANDS OF STUDENTS TO ACCESS AND OBTAIN THEIR COLLEGE EDUCATION, OFTEN REDUCING THE TIME IT TAKES TO GRADUATE. OVER A FIVE-YEAR PERIOD (FY2019-2023), 18,359 SCHOLARSHIPS TOTALING $20.5 MILLION WERE AWARDED TO TRI-C STUDENTS. THE AVERAGE SCHOLARSHIP WAS $1,300. GROWING SCHOLARSHIP OPPORTUNITIES FOR STUDENTS IS AN ONGOING, TOP PRIORITY FOR THE TRI-C FOUNDATION.
