Athletic Grants
The CSC Athletic Grants are distributed annually at the recommendation of the athletic director. The recruiting of in-district students is the expressed preference of the Carl Sandburg College district. A minimum of 70 percent of Athletic Grants are to be awarded to students who reside within the Arrowhead Conference. Athletic Grant applications are available from each specific sport coach or by calling (309) 341-5225.
