At NFC, students can enroll in an in-demand and high-quality associate degree program, such as: AA Degree, AS in accounting technology, AS in business administration, AS in criminal justice technology, AS in emergency medical services, AS in engineering technology and AS in registered nursing.

Scholarship applicants must also have a minimum 2.0 GPA and register for at least one Fall Term 2021 course at NFC. Applications opened July 8 and will be reviewed in the order received and accepted until all awards are assigned.
