Students should monitor their KCTCS email account for important information. All financial aid correspondence, including award notifications and missing information requests, will be sent to KCTCS email addresses. To view your financial aid awards, log in to your student self-service . For more information about Financial Aid and the types of awards available, please read our Award Information page. If you have not submitted the 2013-2014 FAFSA, you should do so immediately.
The Financial Aid Office has reviewed academic performance for all students at the end of the spring semester. Students must meet all of the following conditions to continue receiving Federal and State Financial Aid--including Federal Student Loans.
If a student fails to meet any or all of the conditions, an email notice will be sent to KCTCS email account. For more information please visit our Satisfactory Academic Progress webpage.
With the launch of the new Student Services Center, BCTC's Financial Aid Office contact information has changed. The new phone number for Financial Aid is (855) 246-2477 (toll free). The new email address is bluegrass-financialaid@kctcs.edu.

Think Again! Did you know that dropping ALL of your classes or failing ALL your classes could mean that the Financial Aid Office may ask you to repay some or all of your financial aid awards? It's a federal requirement! BCTC has many resources to help you through the semester. Review the R2T4 webpage before you make that decision!
Federal guidelines for Federal Financial Aid requires BCTC to make sure that all students choose an approved program plan or major by the time they attempt 30 credit hours. If a student does not choose an approved program plan or major after attempting 30 credit hours, he or she is no longer eligible to receive Federal Financial Aid including student loans.
