About Baltimore City Community College Foundation Scholarships
The Baltimore City Community College Foundation pools donor-funded scholarships for students at Baltimore’s public community college. Its Completion Assistance Program helps students complete an application that may match them with more than 30 scholarships. Applications go through BCCC’s scholarship-opportunity portal and are available to students in credit and continuing-education courses; simply enrolling at the college does not trigger an automatic cash payment.
Requirements differ among scholarships. The Foundation says many of the more than 30 opportunities considered through this process require a minimum 2.5 GPA, but financial need, field of study, and permanent residence may also matter. The portal lists criteria and deadlines for each individual opportunity. A student should therefore read each listing rather than assume that one scholarship’s GPA rule applies to every BCCC award.
The shared application reduces repeated paperwork, but it does not replace documents required by an individual fund. The official page instructs students to sign in or create an account using BCCC credentials, review the available opportunities, and submit an application for matching. Some opportunities are automatic matches when a student meets the profile; others require additional responses. Check the college email account and portal regularly after applying.
The Foundation’s official page listed February 13, 2026, as the Spring deadline; that date had passed when this guide was checked. It does not give one common deadline for the next cycle. The portal shows each opportunity’s status and deadline, so email bcccfoundation@bccc.edu to ask when the next applications will open and which scholarships will be active. Do not carry a date from a previous term into a future fall or spring semester.
Before counting on an award, complete the FAFSA and pursue federal, state, and institutional aid as well; Foundation scholarships are separate competitive funds. Ask which expenses a particular award can pay, how it will be applied to the college account, and whether it can be combined with other aid. The Foundation says meeting criteria does not guarantee selection. Keep a copy of the application and supporting documents, and submit financial information only through BCCC’s official links.
Who it serves and what it can cover: The Completion Assistance Program helps match one application to more than 30 scholarships; many require at least a 2.5 GPA. Criteria, amounts, and availability vary by scholarship, financial need, major, and residence; applying does not guarantee an award.
How to apply or get help: The Foundation directs students to apply through its portal with BCCC credentials and lists bcccfoundation@bccc.edu for questions. Its posted Spring deadline was February 13, 2026, which has passed; ask the Foundation when the next cycle will be published. For case-specific questions, contact the program or financial-aid office named on its official page.
