Clackamas Community College invites students and their families to attend the CCC Financial Aid and Scholarship Application Workshop on April 9, 4:30-6:30 p.m., at the college’s Oregon City campus in the Wacheno Welcome Center. This event is designed to help students navigate the financial aid process, including the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid), ORSAA (Oregon Student Aid Application) and the CCC scholarship application.

The FAFSA determines students' eligibility for federal grants, loans and work-study programs. The ORSAA provides access to state-based financial aid for students who are not eligible to complete the FAFSA. Submitting one of these applications also helps students qualify for programs such as the Oregon Promise, which helps many recent high school graduates attend community college with little tuition cost.

CCC’s financial aid and scholarship team will guide attendees and ensure they have the support they need to complete these essential applications. Completing the FAFSA or ORSAA is the first step to unlocking financial support that can make college more affordable, including grants that do not need to be repaid.

Attending this event offers valuable benefits. Financial aid staff will be on hand to provide personalized assistance, ensuring you get expert guidance for your specific needs. You’ll also have the opportunity to learn more about applying for CCC Foundation scholarships, with the average award exceeding $2,000 and one in three applicants receiving a scholarship. Don’t miss your chance—applications are due by April 15.

Space is limited. For questions, email finaid@clackamas.edu or call 503-594-6082
