This ONE application automatically applies you to over 70 different scholarship opportunities.
A note on using Artificial Intelligence (AI): a real live human will be reading your short essay answers. So we ask that you, a real human, shares your personal story with us. Using AI tools like Grammerly to spellcheck and correct grammar is totally acceptable. Using AI Generators like ChatGPT or Google Gemini to draft or write your essays is a violation of the CCA Student Code of Conduct, and could result in a low score on the Essay section.
NEW STUDENTS: If you have NEVER taken a class at CCA or any Colorado Community College System in any form (online, concurrent and/or ASCENT) OR if you have never applied for scholarships at CCA before:
- You must be admitted to CCA and have a CCCS student email address to apply for scholarships. Please visit https://ccaurora.edu/apply/ to begin the admissions process
- Once you have your CCCS student email use the SIGN UP button to create your Award Management account
- You can use whatever password you like, your username will be your CCCS email address
CONTINUING STUDENTS: If you have previously applied for scholarships at CCA using your CCCS student email address (@student.cccs.edu):
- If this is your first time applying for scholarships via Award Management, please use the SIGN UP button to create an account using your @student.cccs.edu email address
- If you have applied for scholarships before use the SIGN IN button to access your scholarship profile
- Use the “Forgot Password” feature to reset your password
If you have any questions please email us at Scholarships.CCA@ccaurora.edu
Please note: Some students will have additional opportunities under the “Recommended Opportunities” tab. Here you will see a list of additional scholarships. Click on the individual links to submit a separate application and any supplemental documents. If you don’t see any additional scholarships under “Recommended Opportunities”, you are already being considered for each of the CCA scholarship(s) for which you are eligible.
