A scholarship is an award or payment for a student to further his/her education. Scholarships are awarded based upon various criteria, which usually reflect the values and purposes of the donor or founder of the award. Scholarship money is not required to be repaid by the student.
This page contains information regarding the Cochise College Foundation Scholarships as well as various external scholarships. For those scholarships that are not offered through the Foundation (external scholarships), if the donor does not specify how funds are to be paid, it is the policy of the Financial Aid Office that the funds be equally split between the fall and spring terms.
