TYPES OF FINANCIAL AID

There are several kinds of financial aid: from scholarships and grants, to loans and federal work study. Click below to learn more about our options.

EXPLORE TYPES OF AID

  • Upon receipt of your electronic FAFSA data from the federal processing center, we will mail you a letter requesting documents needed to complete your file. SUBMIT all requested documentation promptly. You may be asked to submit copies of tax transcripts or other documentation to complete your financial aid application. Respond promptly to these requests (and any follow-up requests) to assure timely processing of your application. The first letter is the ONLY paper letter you will receive from Financial Aid, please check your e-mail often to see if there is any other correspondence from the Financial Aid Office. The Financial Aid Office uses the PRIMARY e-mail address registered with Admissions.

  • To stay compliant with federal regulations, the financial aid office must determine if your high school credential is valid.  This does not affect the admission to Alamance Community College.  Alamance Community College does except all High School diploma’s including unaccredited institutions for admissions into the college.

  • Please provide a copy of your high school credential to admissions and notify the Financial Aid Office at financialaid@alamancecc.edu when it is received.  To see the full policy please click here.

  • Once documentation is received by the financial aid office, it takes approximately 2-3 weeks to process.  Please plan accordingly.  Deadlines are posted HERE each semester.
