All Opportunities

Welcome to NCTC’s Scholarship Opportunities Homepage!

Opens February 1st
SUMMER DEADLINE IS APRIL 1st!
FALL DEADLINE IS APRIL 1st (dual credit and graduating high school seniors)
FALL DEADLINE is JUNE 1st (New and Current students)

SPRING and deadline is October 15th.

Applications received after the deadline dates will be considered only if funds are available. Please Note: Scholarship applications are archived in December/January every year, so a new application must be completed each year beginning in February.

Students who are new to NCTC will need to apply with admissions before being able to complete a scholarship application. To access the General Scholarship Application sign in to OneLogin with your NCTC username and password and then click on myScholarships app/tile. After the General Application is submitted, you are automatically matched to scholarship opportunities you qualify for. No further action is required for these auto-matched scholarships. However, if you see a “Recommended” under Opportunities, click on it and it will take you to an additional list of scholarships for which you may apply by answering more question or completing the donor required application or essay. For additional instructions see the Scholarship Application Guide

Also take a look at the external opportunities and check it often. As we are made aware of scholarships outside of the NCTC Foundation, these opportunities will be posted on our External Opportunities page.
