  • Scholarships for Students

  • The 2017-18 Scholarship Application Closed on March 31, 2017.

    We are currently reviewing and scoring applications. We anticipate making notifications to students in early June.

    Where can I get help?

    Each winter we will host essay workshops and scholarship workshop with the Learning and Success center. Check back to this page for more information in late fall.

    Who can apply?

    To apply for a MHCC scholarship you must:

    • Be a current MHCC student.
    • You must complete the MHCC application for admission.
      • Select the Apply Now link for New and Returning Students.
      • Even if you are unsure if you will attend, you must apply to the college.  This will generate a student ID number, which you will need in order to apply for scholarships.
      • If you haven’t taken classes in over a year, you need to reapply for admission.  You will keep your original student ID number.
    When will the 2017/18 application open?
    Our regular application cycle will open during winter quarter (Typically February 1st and will close at the end of spring break)
    "I don't have time"...
    We know you are busy, but applying is worth it. If you spend two hours total on your application and are awarded a $1,000 scholarship, then you just earned $500 per hour for your effort!
    I heard scholarships can mess up my financial aid…
    The financial aid office reviews students with financial aid award packages if they are awarded a scholarship. They make sure that if you receive a scholarship, it will not negatively affect your existing aid. Specifics can only be determined if you actually receive a scholarship.
