CCC&TI Summer Accelerator Program

CCC&TI Students Could Receive Free Tuition and Fees for Summer Courses

Many Caldwell Community College and Technical Institute students may be able to take summer courses free of charge.

The new Summer Accelerator grant program was recently announced that uses $27 million in state funding to provide tuition assistance to public and private postsecondary students taking courses during Summer 2022 and Summer 2023.

The opportunity will allow CCC&TI students to continue their studies over the summer for free.

The Summer Accelerator grant program will provide up to $5,000 to cover tuition, fees, book, and other expenses based on the number of summer courses a student is taking. To be eligible, students must be:

A North Carolina resident
Enrolled in an academic program leading to postsecondary degree or credential
Working towards their first postsecondary degree or credential
