The CCAC is dedicated to making sure our students get the benefits for every program which they are eligible. One of these programs is called the Tuition Incentive Program, also known as TIP. This is a scholarship through the State of Michigan that helps students with tuition costs at a community college and some 4-year colleges.

At the CCAC we track how many students enter into a 2-4 year within 6 months of graduation after high school. We also focus on making sure our economically disadvantaged students and students of color are reaching their goals. We are looking forward to increasing our percentages over the next few years.
