  • Pell Grants
  • Direct Loans

Returning Students

Financial aid for Summer Sessions is available from these federal programs:

  • Pell Grants (undergraduates only)
  • Direct Loans

These programs are restricted to students accepted to degree programs and eligible certificate programs. Non-degree students are not eligible for financial aid.

Comeback Scholarship

The CCRI Comeback Scholarship helps students who are facing an unexpected financial emergency that is creating a barrier to continued college enrollment and completion. The Comeback Scholarship assists students who were previously enrolled at CCRI to return in order to complete their program of study. If approved, students will receive assistance in an amount to cover the tuition and fee costs for up to two college courses (maximum 8 credits) after all other available state and federal funds have been exhausted. Funds are limited in availability, and eligible students with an Expected Family Contribution (EFC) of $15,000 and under will be reviewed on a rolling, first-come, first-awarded basis. Students who have not previously earned a bachelor's degree are eligible to apply.

Visiting Students

 Visiting students matriculated at other institutions should check with the financial aid office at their home school regarding the possibility of receiving financial aid under a consortium agreement. Non-degree students are not eligible for financial aid.
