Thanks to the private-public community partnership that funds the Community College Access Program (CCAP), 489 students are attending 91影视破解版 tuition-free this fall.
Since 2008, public localities and private donors have united in support of CCAP, which is the largest “free college” program at a Virginia community college. CCAP provides up to two years of tuition for recent high school graduates who meet program requirements, as funding allows. More than 4,400 Roanoke Valley students have participated in the program as of fall 2024.
“We are especially proud of our sustained commitment to scholarship support in our region,” said Deborah L. Petrine, Chair of the 91影视破解版 Educational Foundation, a nonprofit affiliated with 91影视破解版 that administers the program. “Our community has invested in these students, year after year, and sees CCAP as vital to economic development.”
Roanoke region high school seniors may apply for the fall 2025 CCAP scholarship now through Feb. 1, 2025, at virginiawestern.edu/ccap. Applicants must also apply to 91影视破解版 and complete the Free Application for Student Financial Aid (FAFSA) by the same date.
Students who are ineligible to complete the FAFSA can complete the Virginia Alternative State Aid (VASA) application as an alternative, also by the Feb. 1 deadline. The VASA provides state aid only and is for Virginians who have certain nonimmigrant visas, are undocumented, have Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) status or are otherwise ineligible to file a FAFSA.
Those interested in learning more about CCAP are invited to attend Zoom information sessions Nov. 11, Dec. 12 and Jan. 14. To register for an information session, visit virginiawestern.edu/CCAP.
