Financing your Education
Financial Aid
Financial Aid helps you and/or your parents to meet basic educational expenses for an academic degree, a professional technical degree, or a certificate program. While the primary responsibility for paying for college rests with you and your family, Cascadia offers many resources to help you.
The Welcome Desk or the Kodiak Corner Front Counter can assist you with general financial aid questions and collect basic financial aid forms.
Go to your ctcLink account to check your financial aid status online and view what is required to complete the financial aid process, check updates or additional information requested, or to view your financial aid award.
Launch your ctcLink account in the Firefox browser or on your mobile device.
For in depth information about your financial aid record, you may email finaid@cascadia.edu or check in to see the financial aid on duty counselor during Virtual Assistance service hours.
