Paying for College
What is financial aid? Financial aid is money that is given or borrowed to help pay for college. It can come from federal, state, local, school and private entities. North Carolina and the federal government award millions of dollars each year to help students pay for college. Don’t forget Scholarships! Scholarships are gifts. They don’t need to be repaid. There are thousands of them, offered by schools, employers, individuals, private companies, nonprofits, communities, religious groups, and professional and social organizations.
The PIRATES (Providing Inclusive Residential and Transfer Experience Scholarships) program provides scholarships to students enrolled in the Associate in Engineering degree program who plan to transfer into an engineering degree program at East Carolina University. Eligible students are awarded scholarships up to $3,000 a year for two years at LCC, and then up to $10,000 a year for two years at ECU.
