Gateway is offering free tuition through a scholarship that is available to any first-time Gateway student or any previous Gateway student who has taken at least a year off.
Free Tuition Scholarship Criteria
• Eligible recipients must be first-time Gateway/KCTCS students or have been gone for over a year.
• Complete a 2021-2022 FAFSA application (they don’t need to be eligible for aid).
• If the recipient is a Kentucky resident, they must complete a Work Ready Kentucky Scholarship Application (not required if pursuing an Associate in Arts or Associate in Science degree). Students do not need to enroll in a Work Ready eligible program to be eligible for this scholarship.
• They must enroll as a credential-seeking student, taking courses toward earning a college credential. Only courses required in a degree program are eligible for free tuition.
• Apply for free tuition scholarship by Nov. 15.
• Recipients must be enrolled in a minimum of six Gateway credit hours at the time award is made and have Gateway listed as home campus.
• Recipients must be enrolled in classes by Nov. 29.
The deadline to apply for free tuition is Nov. 15.
This is a “last-dollar in” tuition-only scholarship, meaning after all other financial aid or third-party payments (excluding student loans) are applied, the scholarship will cover the remaining tuition balance. Funding is limited and will be awarded on a first-come, first-serve basis.
Free Parking is available in the Midtown City Garage located at 5th and Scott Boulevard. Bring you parking ticket with you for validation.
