Gap Assistance Program

What is the Gap Assistance Program? 

The 社区 College Gap Assistance Program offers financial aid to community college students taking credit or non-credit courses that could lead to jobs in high-need fields. These are need based students who would not be eligible for federal financial aid based on their program of study. 

For more information and approved Gap programs of study visit Nebraska's Coordinating Commission for Postsecondary Education.
