Financial Aid

The Financial Aid Office connects you to the resources you need to help pay for college.

Understanding your financial aid options is an essential part of planning for college. Our financial aid advisors assist students and their families by explaining available resources and exploring strategies to help pay for college.

Our services include but are not limited to:

  • Assist with FAFSA or CASFA completion
  • Support with work-study and scholarship opportunities
  • Student loan counseling
  • Assistance with veteran education benefits
  • Answers to general financial aid and payment questions

To ensure the highest quality of service, our financial aid staff participate in ongoing professional training through the Colorado Community College System (CCCS), Federal Student Aid (FSA), the National Association of Student Financial Aid Administrators (NASFAA), and the Rocky Mountain Association of Student Financial Aid Administrators (RMASFAA).

I came to NJC on a wrestling scholarship. I had other opportunities from various universities, but this matched my price point for school.

The teachers make it feel less like a school and more like a group of friends hanging out, while still learning.
