Financial Aid

Investing in a CCA Education

California College of the Arts is one of the top art and design colleges in the nation. Studying at CCA prepares you to succeed in today’s complex world—to work collaboratively, think critically, and creatively address the challenges of today and tomorrow. We understand attending CCA requires a significant investment, which is why the College is committed to assisting students in meeting their educational goals.

Fostering A Diverse Student Body

We believe enrolling a culturally, economically, and artistically diverse student body is integral to academic excellence. Our financial aid program is designed to help make CCA affordable so all students reach their creative potential.

Scholarship & Financial Aid Opportunities

CCA awards more than $19 million in college-funded scholarships and over $34 million in combined scholarships, grants, loans, and employment to students. Over 85 percent of our students receive some form of scholarships or other type of financial aid.

Prospective first-time freshmen can receive an estimate of their scholarship and financial aid eligibility by using CCA's Net Price Calculator. (Note: A transfer-student dedicated Net Price Calculator is coming soon.)
