Apply
Complete an Application
The PPCC application is free and will take about 30 minutes of your time. If you don't have time to complete the application in one sitting you can save it and come back to it later. Once you have applied you will receive your student number, commonly called an S# (be sure to hold on to your S#, you'll need this for everything).
Sign in to Navigate
Navigate is our software that helps you stay on track to achieve your goal, from day 1 through graduation. Always know what you need to do and when you need to do it.
Just sign in to Navigate and you will be prompted through all of the remaining steps. You can complete these steps without logging into Navigate but Navigate makes it easier.
Get Help Paying for College
The majority of our students receive financial support they do not have to pay back, like financial aid through grants and scholarships.
We don't want you to be burdened by debt, so please take the time to file your Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), browse our Scholarships and please enable your College Opportunity Fund (COF, for Colorado residents).

Pay for Classes.
If you have FAFSA, military benefits, scholarships or grants make sure those funds have been applied to your bill. If you have a remaining balance use one of our convenient options to pay for your classes and remember they must be paid for by the drop for non payment date.
