STLCC Scholarships

The Financial Aid office maintains information regarding institutional and external scholarships as well as scholarships offered through the St. Louis Community College Foundation. Students should contact the Financial Aid office for information on institutional scholarships. We also encourage students to seek information from local organizations, employers and local libraries for information regarding external scholarships.

Students must complete and submit required scholarship information to the appropriate office or to the Financial Aid office by the appropriate deadline date for consideration. For a list of scholarships and requirements, you may download the Scholarships Opportunities brochure(PDF).

Foundation Scholarships

St. Louis Community College students can apply for foundation scholarships and loans directly through their campus financial aid offices. These funds are made possible by the generosity of donors to the STLCC Foundation. Major donor groups include friends of the college, faculty, staff, students and alumni, retired employees, board members, corporations and foundations. Their generosity helps hundreds of students who would not otherwise be able to attend college. For more information visit the Foundation Scholarships page or Foundation Scholarships can be found as part of the Scholarship Opportunities brochure(PDF).
