A strong education without the private college price

At FLC, students get the kind of personal attention often associated with private colleges — small classes, faculty mentorship, and a close-knit campus — with the value of a public institution. 

That combination matters. You can pursue a rigorous degree, build real experience, and graduate with support from people who know you.

File the FAFSA to unlock more aid

The Free Application for Federal Student Aid, known as the FAFSA, helps determine eligibility for grants, work-study, federal loans, and other need-based aid. 

Students may also qualify for FLC scholarships, foundation scholarships, and other forms of support.
