MLC Merit Scholarship Opportunities

No application is required.

We review eligibility for every student each year. Students that did not initially receive any merit aid would still be eligible in future academic years. Merit scholarships will be added as part of the financial aid award.

Incoming (traditional) first-year students will be considered for merit scholarships based on their cumulative high school GPA or ACT score. Transfer students and returning MLC students will be considered for merit scholarships based on their cumulative college GPA.

2021-2022 MLC Scholarship Opportunities

Below are the scholarship opportunities for enrolled students during the 2021-2022 academic year. Please note the specific deadlines, qualifications, and application information. Scholarship reminders will be posted on Portal and the MLC Direction Facebook page.

Students that receive a designated MLC scholarship will be asked to write a letter of appreciation (thank you letter).
Students that do not write this letter of appreciation within the designated time frame will forfeit their eligibility for any future MLC scholarship opportunities (excluding merit scholarships and need-based grants).
