    HCTC is making a promise to any first-time, credential seeking students enrolling in the Fall 2021 semester that we’ve got your back!

    This is a “last dollar in” scholarship, which means after all your other aid (PELL, CAP, grants, third-party scholarships, etc.) has been applied, the HCTC Promise scholarship will cover the balance for:

    • Tuition of up to 15 credit hours, with a six credit hours minimum (only program applicable courses)
    • Buildsmart fees
    • Digital content fees
    • Online course charges

    This is OUR promise to YOU that, as a first-time student, you will pay ZERO tuition your first year at HCTC! *Eligibility extends to any first-time, credential-seeking Kentucky residents and any Kentucky class of 2021 seniors (graduated or Senate Bill 128 seniors), including those who have taken dual credit classes.

    Go to hazardctc.com/promise today to apply! Contact HCTC Director of Advancement Carla Seals at (606) 487-3072 or at carla.seals@kctcs.edu for more information.

    Other KCTCS college students, visiting students, students with prior college credit(s) excluding dual-credit hours, and current high school students are ineligible, as are the costs of program kits, tools, and books/resources.

    **Eligible students must complete their FAFSA and the HCTC Promise application and MUST take HCTC classes and have HCTC listed as their home campus. Students must also maintain a 2.0 GPA and complete the Fall 2021 semester to be eligible for the scholarship in the Spring 2022 semester.
