The purpose of Financial Aid is to ensure that each student has sufficient resources to enable them to attend college. We provide grants, fee waivers, scholarships, loans, and federal work-study. Financial aid funds are provided to help with all costs of attending college, including costs of enrollment fees, book and supplies, room and board, other personal and living expenses, transportation, childcare, and computers.
Work-based learning activities extend the classroom into the workplace--putting the theory, knowledge and skills gained in class into practice. Those linkages make for better students and better employees. Las Positas College’s Work-Based Learning Initiative is dedicated to help create these linkages. Also contact instructors in your interested field for connections!
