HOW TO APPLY

The first step to apply for scholarships is to complete our general scholarship application. 

Once completed, you’ll be entered in our general scholarship pool to be considered for those scholarships open to all CCS students. You’ll also be alerted to additional scholarship opportunities which you may qualify for based on the responses you provided. Many of these opportunities require additional information, but have fewer applicants because they have very specific criteria. We encourage you to take the time to apply for all scholarships for which you qualify to increase your chances of receiving an award.

​Sign in directions: The email will be your first name, followed by the first initial of your last name, followed by the last four digits of your Student ID, followed by @bigfoot.spokane.edu. (Ie: johnr1234@bigfoot.spokane.edu). The password is your full Student ID number, unless you've changed your password already.
