Workforce Education Funding Opportunities
Looking for help with tuition?
You may be eligible for one of the funding programs listed below to help you get started with your education.
For more information about these funding options, contact Academic and Career Advising by making an appointment, calling (425) 235-5840, or stopping by the Student Success Center (Building I) on campus.
Always start your funding search by completing your FAFSA. Even if you think you may not qualify or that it will not be processed in time, you should still apply, as it is often required for other funding sources. In addition to the information on the FAFSA website, a Guide to Completing the FAFSA is available in the RTC Financial Aid Office, Room I-205.
