The FA "Follow Your Dream" and The Matt Hachee Memorial Scholarship provides funding opportunities for all MCC students with a focus on those who are not only successful in their studies but balance their off-campus responsibilities such as multiple jobs, elder care, child care, housing insecurity, health issues, etc.

Applications for both scholarships will be available in the spring 2027 semester and the scholarship recipients will be awarded as well. Please encourage your students to apply.
