Finish Line Scholars Scholarship and Emergency Grant program provides financial assistance through a scholarship, to eligible students who are on their way toward a finish line goal of transferring to a college or university or completing a certificate or degree. Read qualifications carefully!
The application will be open until funds are exhausted 

• The student must qualify for and receive a tuition fee waiver through the California College Promise Grant.

Program Completion Goal:

• The student must be working toward completing a certificate or degree. Eligible completion goals include:

  • An Associate Degree (including for Transfer)
  • A Baccalaureate Degree
  • Transfer to a four-year institution prior to receiving a credential from a California Community College (early transfer)

• Students with fewer than 6 units remaining to complete their program are still eligible without needing to enroll in unnecessary additional units.

• Students must have completed at least 50% of the credits required for their program and have a realistic plan to finish within one year.
