CCU Online Event Scholarship Rules

If you qualify, you will receive a $1,000 tuition scholarship toward an associate degree, bachelor's degree, master's degree, or doctoral degree from CCU Online.

See eligibility requirements for details. See also General Rules for CCU Promotions.

Scholarship payments

The scholarship is designed to be distributed evenly among multiple courses in the student's degree program at Colorado Christian University and may not exceed the cost of a course. The scholarship may only be used toward courses offered directly by CCU.

  • Each $1,000 scholarship recipient will receive a $250 tuition credit toward each of the first four courses in their degree program.

Tuition credits will be deducted from the student's account balance. All course billings must be paid or have a payment arrangement contract in place prior to the first day of the class. The scholarship funds must be used within 365 days from the entry date. Any unused portion will be forfeited after that date.

Students with a lapse in enrollment of more than 365 days will forfeit the scholarship even if part of the scholarship has already been awarded.

Visit the CCU Online Financial Aid website for more information about tuition, scholarships, and flexible options for making your degree program affordable.
