Scholarships are available at MxCC!  Applications are made available through the Office of the Dean of Learning & Student Development.  Criteria is clearly defined in the application and a deadline date is provided.  Deserving students are selected by a committee of faculty, staff, and foundation members.  Each scholarship donor's intent is honored during the selection process.

For the 2006 - 2007 academic year, the Foundation has about 60 scholarships available for students.  Funds are raised continuously and expended for scholarships in May.  These scholarships enable entering and/or continuing students to access an education at MxCC that otherwise might be impossible.

A completed scholarship application includes:

  • A completed 2007 Scholarship Application form.
  • A copy of the confirmation or summary sheet of your 2006 - 2007 FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) to document that you have applied for financial aid online at www.fafsa.ed.gov using school code 008038.
  • A copy of your latest transcript from MxCC or, or if an entering student, from your high school.
  • At least two letters of recommendation from people who have known you through school, employment, or community activities.
  • A brief essay describing what motivates you to succeed, why you wish to be considered for a scholarship, and what you want to accomplish with your life and for your community.

Applications should be submitted to:

Frank G. Samuels, Ph.D.
