Dual Credit Scholarship

Currently the Columbus Public Schools Foundation offers Dual Credit Scholarships to students pursuing classes in, but not limited to Match, Social Sciences and English programs of study in partnership with Central Community College.

** All students that qualify for an ACE Scholarship are REQUIRED to apply for an ACE Scholarship prior to applying for a CPSF scholarship. To learn more about the ACE Scholarship and to see if you would qualify visit https://ccpe.nebraska.gov/ACE. This scholarship cannot be stacked with the CMS PAC scholarship. These scholarships will not be awarded to students that are registering for an Automotive, Construction, Mechatronic or Welding class. These students should pursue the Dual Credit Scholarship - STS/CTE opportunities.

** Priority will be given to students taking a dual credit class that directly supports their future course of study toward a college degree or employment.

** Scholarships may be given for up to 3 credits. Meaning if the class you are studying is a 4 credit course you will be financially responsible for the remaining cost of 1 credit.
