College Tuition and the Millennium Scholarship

 

Based on current tuition rates, seniors who qualify for the Millennium Scholarship will pay from $45.00 to $54.00 out-of-pocket expense for each three credit college course.  Thus, students are strongly encouraged to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) in order to apply for federal student aid.  Parents and students may complete the FAFSA online at www.fafsa.ed.gov.  In addition, students are encouraged to apply for local, state, and national scholarships to supplement the cost of college attendance.  An updated list of scholarships may be found at www.ccsd.net/cpd/guidance_counseling/.  Finally, students who do not score a composite score of 21 on the ACT or a 1020 combined score on the SAT are encouraged to retake the test(s), as the Millennium Scholarship will no longer pay for remedial coursework at the college level.
