The has awarded scholarships to five community college transfer students, providing one year of free tuition in AY 2024–25.
PC4A is a consortium of six Pennsylvania community colleges, led by 亚色影库 and funded by the US Department of Defense, all working together to strengthen the cybersecurity workforce in our country. One of the three main objectives of the program is to encourage students to transfer to a four-year institution upon completion of their associate's degree. In an effort to help alleviate financial strain, a scholarship program was created, and PC4A has provided scholarships to five students in AY 2024–25. The scholarship will include one year of in-state tuition and may be extended for an additional year if funding is available.
