Scholarship & Aid

The purpose of the Office of Scholarships and Student Aid (OSSA) is to assist in the recruitment and retention of students by providing financial resource information and access to funding. The OSSA provides financial assistance and guidance through appropriate communication and learning activities that empower students to fulfill their academic aspirations.

Financial aid is available in the form of scholarships, grants, loans and work study. Most Federal and State funded financial aid programs are awarded on the basis of proven financial need. The OSSA ensures that funds are awarded in a consistent and equitable manner.

For each student who desires financial assistance, a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) must be completed online via the FAFSA web site on January 1st. The student must reapply each academic year for financial aid. Applicants should make sure the correct award year is selected and the school code of 002950 is listed in section six.

The Office of Scholarships and Student Aid is committed to providing timely and exemplary service to its students and families.  NCCU does not certify private loans. 

For assistance in completing your 2012-2013 FAFSA, schedule an office appointment, via our online form.
