Priority Deadlines
To receive financial aid, students must reapply each year.

Students are encouraged to apply as soon as possible after January 1 for the following academic year. Applications and all required documents should be submitted to the Financial Aid office at the earliest possible date. Since CBC is allocated a limited amount of federal and state funds, financial aid is awarded to eligible students based upon date of file completion and availability of funds.

To allow for processing time and funds to be available by the tuition due date, completed files must be submitted to the Financial Aid office by:

 Fall Quarter April 15
 Winter Quarter October 15
 Spring Quarter January 15
 Summer Quarter April 15

Completed files consist of a completed FAFSA, completed CBC Financial Aid Data Sheet, and other documentation requested by the Financial Aid office personnel.

Applications will still be accepted after the above dates. However, the eligibility may not be determined in enough time to pay tuition and fees prior to the quarter beginning. If an applicant is eligible for aid, the award will be made retroactive.

Summer eligibility is determined on a case-by-case basis as funding is available. Students must notify the Financial Aid office personnel of their summer enrollment. A determination of eligibility will then be made and the funds awarded.
