STEM Promise Scholarship
The application for the Fall 2026 cohort will open in December 2025.
The STEM Promise Scholarship pays up to $1000 per semester toward tuition and fees for up to 2 years.
TCC is addressing a persistent challenge—how to create a larger and more diverse STEM workforce pipeline—through The STEM Promise Program scholarship.
Up to twenty students a year will be awarded last-dollar scholarships, up to $1,000 per semester, to pursue STEM degrees at TCC.
These degrees will take them directly into their careers or to a 4-year college to complete a bachelor’s degree.
Starting at TCC was definitely the right step for me. I’ll be transferring to Old Dominion in a year, and I’ll be debt free. That’s a big deal.
