Students who plan to attend Rapphannock Community College (RCC) during the 2018-19 academic year can start applying for scholarships starting Oct. 1.

“We changed the date for when we’re opening the scholarship application to coincide with the first day that students can apply for the FASFA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid),” said Sarah Pope, RCC’s Dean of College Advancement. “If you think you might attend RCC in the fall of 2018, then definitely apply for a scholarship.”

To apply for a scholarship, a student must apply to attend RCC and set up a student account. Once established, a student may visit www.rappahannock.edu/scholarships or call 333-6709.
