Welcome to the Student Awards page!
Awards are offered on a limited basis to students meeting specific criteria. The awards are based on the criteria provided by donors.
Process:
- Only the award designees are permitted to submit applications. The designees are listed herebelow.
- To ensure awarding will be possible, designees should contact HACCscholarships@hacc.edu to inquire about funding. The designee should make the contact at least 60 days before the funds will be needed and provide the amount of funding required.
- Once the funding has been confirmed, the designee should complete the form located at https://www.HACC.edu/learnerawards at least 30 days before the payment is needed. You are welcome to submit multiple students for the same fund on one form.
- If the event date where the award is being presented is more than 30 days from the application submission date, you may request a date for processing the awards.
- If the student meets the criteria, the award is placed directly on the student’s account. If the student has a balance due, the award funds will be applied toward the balance owed to HACC.
- The award funds will be reported to all applicable government agencies in accordance with applicable laws.
- Any balance available on the student account will be refunded to the student based on the refund options chosen for their student account.
- If you have questions, please contact HACCscholarships@hacc.edu. Thank you.
