You can receive NWC financial aid. Generally to receive financial aid you need to be a student who is enrolled in a degree program and attending college full or part-time. The majority of students attending Northwest Campus are less than part-time, so the requirements for our financial aid differ.
To be eligible to receive NWC financial aid you must be enrolled for a NWC course or plan to enroll, have financial need, and have a minimum 2.0 GPA, and satisfactorily completed previously funded courses. Due to limited funds, not all applicants are awarded scholarships.
