Financial Aid

CVCC’s Workforce Solutions division is pleased to be able to offer students a number of financial aid assistance options to help cover costs associated with our Rapid Train programs. Thanks to recently-enacted General Assembly legislation, many students are now eligible to obtain help in covering costs of tuition, books, materials, testing fees, etc. that are associated with non-credit classes at the community college. Funds are limited, and availability of the reduced tuition costs are contingent upon the allocation and availability of state funds for the program.

Three types of financial aid may be available, based on eligibility. For more details, click on the program types for which you may be eligible:

 

EXAMPLE*:
  • A student is interested in a WCG program with a total cost of $3,990.
  • A student who qualifies for WCG assistance would pay $1,330 upon registration. That student would be responsible for reimbursing the state an additional $1,330 if h/she did not complete the program with a satisfactory grade.
  • A student who qualifies for WCG and FANTIC assistance would pay $133 upon registration. That student would be responsible for reimbursing the state an additional $1,330 if h/she did not complete the program with a satisfactory grade. As a first step, review our planned Rapid Train offerings and contact us for more information or attend an upcoming Open House for details.
