Rather, they are presented a financial aid deal that includes a mix of loans, grants, scholarships, and possibly work-study opportunities. The total cost of going to Fayette County Career & Technical Institute Practical Nursing Program can seem overpowering, but remember that the majority of students are given some form of financial assistance.

Eligibility for aid and scholarships is driven mostly by your household’s income and need. Use the information below to understand how much financial assistance you may get from Fayette County Career & Technical Institute Practical Nursing Program.
Financial assistance, available as scholarships, loans, and work-study, is a way schools lower the price of attendance so many students can enroll. Note that some aid is more valuable than the rest, and individual awards are far from uniform.
At Fayette County Career & Technical Institute Practical Nursing Program, 95% of first-time, full-time freshmen received some form of financial aid (about 37 incoming students).

|---|---|---|

| Federal Pell grants | 90% | $7,071 |
| State/local grants | 0% | — |

Unlike loans, grants and scholarships are gift aid that does not need to be paid back, making them the most desirable form of assistance. At FCCTI, approximately 91% of undergraduate students received gift aid averaging $7,635 (among about 78 recipients).
| Award | % of Undergrads Receiving | Average Amount |
|---|---|---|
| Grant or scholarship aid (all sources) | 91% | $7,635 |
| Federal Pell grants | 88% | $6,210 |
| Federal student loans | 76% | $8,972 |

Since aid is largely need-based, the real cost of attendance falls steeply for lower-income families.
| Family Income | Average Net Price |
|---|---|
| $0 – $48,000 | $23,414 |
Remember these are net prices — what families pay after gift aid, not before.
Net price is the average annual cost after grants and scholarships are subtracted from the published cost of attendance — the figure closest to what a typical aid-receiving student actually pays.
| Cohort | Average Net Price |
|---|---|
| On-campus title-IV students | $24,194 |
| Off-campus title-IV students | $23,636 |
