Student Scholarships
Johnston Community College Foundation works hard to raise scholarship funding for
our current and future students.
Current JCC students can apply for scholarships starting February 15th to May 1st

Student Ambassadors
Ambassadors are an exceptional group of students selected to represent the College
at special events on campus and in the community. For more than 10 years the College
Foundation has funded up to fifteen annual scholarships for students who have shown
potential to be leaders on campus. Student ambassadors at JCC are involved in various activities on campus and in the
community. Some of these activities include community service such as Habitat for Humanity,
assisting with campus registration, graduation ceremonies, and various fund-raisers
for the College.
Recipients of this scholarship network and develop relationships with faculty, staff, and fellow students that last a lifetime. Each student ambassador commits him or herself to one full year of service to JCC and attends an orientation and summer training session to build teamwork, communication, and character-building skills.
