The Federal COVID Pandemic Assistance fund, also known as CARES and HEERF, allotted to Shoreline Community College has now been exhausted. Students who were already awarded the COVID aid for Fall will begin to see their funds disbursement starting on Thursday, September 29th, 2022.
United Way of King County has also provided emergency funding for the 2022-2023 academic year. Information on how to apply can be found on the emergency funding page. Emergency funding options can be found at this link.
For students needing additional aid, we encourage you to complete the 2022-2023 FAFSA or WASFA. Please visit Funding and Aid Sources to find additional funding options. Those who have already applied for fall 2022 traditional financial aid will have their classes placed on hold to prevent them from being dropped for non-payment while the Financial Aid Office review their files to determine eligibility.
Last evening there was a car prowl and attempted theft of an automotive program vehicle near the Track & Field on campus.
