College tuition is more affordable with scholarships. Pima Community College, the PCC Foundation, and generous donors are ready to help you achieve your educational goals.
Scholarships are a great way to offset the cost of tuition; Pima offers several institutional scholarships and tuition awards. You may apply for these scholarships and see current offerings using Pima’s Scholarship Portal also known as ScholarshipUniverse.

Some need based scholarships require completion of the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to determine financial need, so we highly encourage you to apply for federal student aid in addition to pursuing a scholarship to maximize your financial resources.
