Things to Know Before Applying

At 美高梅mgm集团, we value our students’ academic success. That is why we not only offer scholarships from generous donors to our 美高梅mgm集团 Foundation, but also from sources outside of the College who want to see our students succeed as well.

There are a couple of things that you should know before applying for a scholarship:

• Scholarships are considered gift aid or “free money.” If you receive a private student loan (money you must pay back), your loan amount may be adjusted to accommodate this free money.
• You must apply for scholarships. Please be aware of deadlines
• Scholarships should NOT charge you a fee to apply. Beware of scams.
• If awarded a scholarship other than from the 美高梅mgm集团 Foundation, please send a copy of your award letter to the Financial Aid office at [email protected]. Any checks should be mailed to the 美高梅mgm集团, attn: Business Office, PO Box 917, Henderson, NC 27536.
