FYE102 (First Year Experience 102)

Hi! Welcome back to CCC Library! We last met during FYE-101 Library Day, and we are thrilled to see you back in FYE-102.

This time around, CCC Library is going to help you locate another scholarship, beyond the CCC Foundation, that you can apply for. You will use the resources on this guide to identify a second scholarship, then complete the assignment also linked on this guide.

Don't worry, you don't need to write another scholarship essay for this assignment, and if you haven't finished yours, you can still complete this assignment. 

This assignment is worth 100 points. Your instructor will give you more information. You submit it through this website, not Moodle.

In this guide, you will find:

• Your Funding Options for College assignment
• Resources to complete the Funding Options for College assignment
• FYE102 Scholarship wall of fame! A list of the scholarships previous FYE-102 students have found as a result of this assignment.
• Links to get help from the friendly CCC Librarians, who love to help you find free things (books, articles, more scholarships, etc.!)

There are risks involved in scholarship searching! Please explore the Federal Student Aid's webpage on how to avoid scams and protect your identity during the scholarship application process! Also, this guide is meant to help you discover opportunities, but CCC Library cannot assist you in the application process, nor do we provide legal or financial advice. We have provided links to well-known scholarship databases but cannot verify the authenticity of individual scholarships. CCC has an entire office dedicated to helping you find funding for your college tuitions. See the CCC Financial Aid + Scholarships website, and consider visiting the CCC Financial Aid Resource Lab for assistance.
