Welcome to the Financial Aid Office

Grays Harbor College provides a comprehensive student financial aid program to eligible students. Financial aid is designed to provide assistance when student resources are insufficient to meet the cost of going to college. Aid programs include grants, scholarships, work-study, and loans.

To be eligible to receive financial aid funds, students must have completed high school or GED, be an American citizen or eligible non-citizen, be registered with Selective Service (if required), not owe a repayment on a financial aid grant or be in default on a student loan and be enrolled in a program that leads to a degree or certificate.

All financial aid awards are based on full-time enrollment (12 or more credits). However, aid is available for less than twelve credits. When enrolling for less than 12 credits, aid awards are prorated based on the number of credits.

The Financial Aid Office is open 7:30 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. Monday through Friday. Evening hours are provided during the first four evenings of the quarter, excluding Fridays, and every Tuesday during the remainder of the quarter until 6:00 p.m., excluding summer quarter.
