Opportunities for education and career development for low income students who qualify for, or who receive, basic food benefits.
In a partnership with Department of Social and Health Services (DSHS), Lower Columbia College offers opportunities for education and career development to low income-students who qualify to receive, or are currently receiving, federally issued basic food benefits.
While BFET does not provide tuition assistance to students at this time, students may qualify for other assistance such as child care. BFET allows students who are receiving federally issued basic food benefits to continue receiving those benefits while attending school.
