College Access Program Grant
Scholarship Sponsored by Kentucky Higher Education Assistance Authority
What the College Access Program (CAP) does - CAP grants help Kentucky undergraduate students with financial need pay for tuition and fees at eligible public and private colleges, technical colleges, trade schools, and other qualifying institutions. Who can be considered (eligibility) To be considered for a CAP grant, a student must: - Be a Kentucky resident. - Demonstrate financial need. - Be enrolled at least half-time in a program that is at least two years long (check your school’s definition of half-time). - Attend an eligible college or school. - Have no past-due financial obligations to KHEAA (Kentucky Higher Education Assistance Authority) or to any Title IV federal student aid program. How long CAP can help (limits) - If you’re in a two-year program: funding is limited to the equivalent of full-time enrollment for four academic terms. - If you’re in a four-year program: funding is limited to the equivalent of full-time enrollment for eight academic terms. (Think of these limits as the CAP covering about two years of full-time study in a two-year program, or about four years in a four-year program.) How to apply - Complete the FAFSA for the academic year you need aid. The FAFSA opens on October 1 each year. - CAP funds are awarded on a first-come, first-served basis according to FAFSA completion date, so apply as soon as the FAFSA opens. 2024–2025 maximum award amounts - Up to $2,500 per year for students at two-year institutions. - Up to $5,300 per year for students at four-year institutions. Quick next steps 1. Mark October 1 on your calendar and complete the FAFSA as soon as possible. 2. Confirm your school is eligible for CAP and check their definition of half-time enrollment. 3. If you owe money to KHEAA or any Title IV program, resolve those obligations before applying. If you want, I can help you draft a FAFSA checklist or explain how to check whether a particular school is eligible for CAP.
