Financial Aid
Students enrolled in our ESL or GED courses are not eligible for federal financial aid because these are not degree granting programs. Some students may opt for a private loan to help pay for classes or pursue one of our scholarships or external scholarships. For a comprehensive list of scholarships available through Bergen Community College, visit the Foundation website at http://www.bergen.edu/pages/1817.aspStudents who are enrolled in a BCC certificate or degree program may be eligible for financial aid.
