This support includes tuition waivers (regular, athletic, and dual enrollment), scholarships, and additional funding opportunities for currently enrolled students, transfer students, non-traditional students, and graduates of accredited high schools.

Many lending agencies offer private student loans as an alternative to the federal loan programs. However, private student loans should be considered loans of last resort. With limited exceptions, they are more costly then the federal loans and do not provide the same protections to borrowers.
Application for a private student loan is made directly to the lender, typically online. In turn, the lender then requests certification of eligibility from MCC.
Before pursuing a private student loan, students should complete the FAFSA and/or consult staff in the financial aid office to make sure all other options have been exhausted.
