You may still be wondering how you’ll pay for college. This is often the most stressful part for some students, but securing the funding is easier than you think. EICC offers several options, and our team will help you through every step of the process.

However, you can complete the FAFSA for the next school year starting on October 1 prior to starting college. You’ll find everything you need to know at eicc.edu/fafsa

College Work Study
Federal College Work Study allows you to earn money to help you in funding your education. These are typically part-time jobs both on and off campus.
Loans
Student loans are borrowed funds that must be paid back, including interest and fees. You must also be enrolled in a minimum of six credit hours. Visit eicc.edu/paying to explore all of your options and check out additional resources.
