Justamere Foundation Healthcare Scholarships

Are you interested in one of NCC’s Healthcare Career Programs but need help paying for the courses?

Healthcare Non-Credit Scholarships will be available for the Spring 2024 semester at Northampton Community College. These scholarships may be able to assist you with partial program costs thanks to the generous support of the Justamere Foundation.

 

Scholarships will be awarded on a competitive need basis. To be eligible for assistance, applicants must have already exhausted all other funding opportunities, including 529 account, CareerLink ITA funding, VA benefits, etc. Veterans will be given priority in receiving awards.

 

An in-person interview will be scheduled prior to receipt of the scholarship as well as midway and at the conclusion of the program.

 

Half of the grant award is distributed at the time of registration and the remaining scholarship balance will be reimbursed upon successful completion of the program. The maximum scholarship award per student is $4000.00.

 

As a condition of receiving the support, students must agree to provide feedback to the college regarding the scholarship process and their experience in the program to improve NCC’s ability to serve future students.  This will occur six and twelve months after the conclusion of the course by an email survey. Students will also be required to write a letter of appreciation to the Justamere Foundation, detailing the impact the scholarship has had on their healthcare career.
