FACTS provides family need and the MCC Financial Aid committee reviews applications and determines the needbased award.
We review need-based awards annually. Families must complete a FACTS Grant and Aid application each year.
To qualify for Need-Based Scholarships families must be awarded State-Funded Aid.
NOAH OSTRANDER ‘25 HARDING UNIVERSITY
“The transition from homeschooling to MCC was way better than I expected. Participating in three varsity sports, the academic rigor, and the opportunity to go on a missions trip with classmates to another country have all prepared me for Harding University.”
JAMIE OSTRANDER ‘97 MCC ALUMNI & CURRENT PARENT
“I am really pleased that MCC prepared me for college and now has prepared my son for Harding University. The education, real life application, and athletics are all still top-notch.”
