Finish Line Grant / Emergency Funds
In an effort to help support students in achieving high graduation and staying in college at NC community colleges, Governor Roy Cooper announced the Finish Line Grant on July 12, 2018. Many times students are faced with unforeseen financial circumstances that can impact their graduation or enrollment. These funds will help students to overcome these financial barriers to completing their training and education.
The primary objective of the Finish Line Grant and Emergency funds are to resolve financial issues that students may encounter so they are able to focus on their studies.
