Each year, the <strong>LACC</strong> Foundation provides students with scholarships and<br />
awards to allow them to continue to excel in their educational endeavors.<br />
These scholarships vary in their fields, award amounts, and application<br />
requirements, including evidence of leadership in various academic<br />
departments and/or student activities, citizenship, need, and scholastic<br />
ability. Scholarships are the result of the generosity of private donors,<br />
<strong>LACC</strong> alumni and the campus community. Students are encouraged to<br />
visit individual department websites and the <strong>LACC</strong> Foundation site for<br />
detailed information regarding available scholarships and awards. All<br />
award and scholarship applications normally become available during the<br />
beginning of the Spring semester, and are awarded to students towards<br />
the end of the Spring semester.
