Tuition Waiver Application

Note: Students admitted to AAS Nursing, BAEE and other UAA degree programs not eligible for Kodiak College scholarships and tuition waivers. CNA program students are not eligible unless they are also admitted to a Kodiak College degree or certificate program.

The tuition waiver categories are described below. You will automatically be considered for all categories that you are eligible for. If you would like to be considered for the financial need category you must complete the financial need statement below.

Students with Financial Need:
Applicant may be FULL-TIME or PART-TIME. This waiver is awarded based on financial need indicated in the financial need statement submitted with your application

Part-Time Student:
This waiver is for PART-TIME students with preference given to students who are enrolled in 6 or fewer credits.

AAS Accounting:
Applicant may be FULL-TIME or PART-TIME. Eligible students must be officially admitted to the AAS Accounting Program.

Smart Start Student:
Applicant must be enrolled in at least six (6) credits of the Smart Start program. The Smart Start program includes the following courses: PRPE A086 Writing Strategies, PRPE A076 Reading Strategies, MATH A054 Pre-Algebra and GUID A150 Creating Success in College.

1st Generation College Student:
Applicant may be FULL-TIME or PART-TIME. Eligible students must be the first generation in their family to attend college (neither parent earned a bachelors degree).

The purpose of the statement is to allow the Committee to evaluate your financial need as compared to other applicants. If you submit a statement in which you describe having expenses much greater than your income, you should also supply an explanation as to how you intend to close that gap if you do not receive financial assistance.

The essay should be a minimum of 500 words. Assistance for writing your essay is available in The Learning Center at Kodiak College and the committee strongly requests that you have your essay proofread prior to submission. Call (907) 486-1203 for more information.
