KCTCS Scholarships
KCTCS offers a number of scholarships, both academic-based and need-based that you are not required to pay back. For a list of KCTCS scholarships, visit the Two-Year Public Colleges Scholarship guide. Each year, a number of individuals, organizations, and companies make funding available for scholarships to various KCTCS colleges. The amount and criteria for these awards will vary. These scholarships are advertised on college websites when available, and eligible students may apply at that time. Please select your home college for additional information regarding Scholarship Opportunities.

When will I know if I am awarded a scholarship?
Once awarded with a scholarship, the Scholarship Office sends an award notification via postal mail in which the letter will contain instructions for the student to submit a 'Thank You Note'. Scholarships are automatically accepted for students once the list of recipients is received by the Business Office, typically after the semester has begun.
Do I have to reapply for scholarships each year?
Yes. Students must reapply annually to renew and continue receiving their scholarship, so long as they maintain all other scholarship requirements.
