NEXT NC Scholarship… Complete FAFSA to Apply
The Next NC Scholarship is a financial aid program that helps most North Carolinians from households making $80,000 or less pursue higher education by fully covering tuition and fees at Robeson Community College. The best part? It’s money that doesn’t have to be repaid.
As a student of Robeson Community College you will receive at least $3,000. The scholarship award can be used for things beyond tuition, including things like fees, books, food, and housing.
Students with the greatest need for financial aid could qualify for additional funding to help make paying for college more manageable.
