Before You Get Started

Most of the BC3 scholarships are merit-based, academic awards, however; scholarships are still considered a type of financial aid. The BC3 scholarship program is a merit-based academic award program and is used as a resource in determining financial aid awards.
Some scholarships are need-based, which is verified by the completion of the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). It is recommended that BC3 students complete the FAFSA annually. Complete your FAFSA application.
In the event of multiple candidates having comparable GPAs, preference will be given to the student who has completed the FAFSA form and has the greater financial need.

The Scholarship Application will reopen on April 15, 2025.

*Reminder: students must register for fall classes before completing the online scholarship application.
