Tuition Waiver Awards for Incoming High School Graduates
** No Application Required – Automatic Consideration if meet eligibility criteria
SLCC offers two tuition waiver award opportunities for students enrolling straight from high school. These awards are automatically applied for qualifying students—no separate application is necessary.
Please note that eligible students may receive only one tuition waiver award. If a student qualifies for both awards, SLCC will award only one tuition waiver, and the other award cannot be saved, deferred, or used in a future semester. Students must enroll and attend SLCC in the Fall semester immediately following high school graduation or forfeit the award, unless an approved deferment has been granted. Get started by completing the Deferment Request Form.
What to Expect
- Awards are automatically offered to eligible students who meet the criteria—no need to apply. Since students have all summer to update their info, we continuously review eligible students weekly starting July 2026.
- Be sure all transcripts, residency info, and registration requirements are completed on time. The sooner this information is updated, the sooner you know if you qualify or not.
- Keep an eye on your SLCC Bruinmail for award notifications and next steps.
