MCC Foundation Scholarships — One Application, $6 Million+ Available

About This Opportunity

The MCC Foundation manages more than $6 million in scholarship funds available to MCC students. One application at mccneb.awardspring.com considers you for every scholarship you are eligible for — you do not apply separately for each award. Awards cover every program area at MCC: healthcare, technology, culinary arts, automotive, welding, business, liberal arts, and more. If you are planning to attend MCC for any program, apply for Foundation scholarships as soon as the portal opens each cycle. Awards are highly competitive — the earlier you apply, the more scholarships you can still access. Most awards do not require a minimum GPA; some are need-based (requiring FAFSA), some are merit-based, and many are program-specific. Log in at mccneb.awardspring.com to see which scholarships currently match your profile. COUNCIL BLUFFS STUDENTS: You CAN apply for MCC Foundation scholarships even as an out-of-state student. MCC is a Nebraska school, so Iowa residents (including CB students) pay out-of-state tuition — but scholarship eligibility is separate from tuition residency. An MCC Foundation scholarship can help offset the higher out-of-state tuition. Before enrolling at MCC as a CB student, calculate the full out-of-state tuition cost and what scholarships are available to you, and compare to Iowa Western Community College (IWCC) in Council Bluffs, where you would pay Iowa in-state tuition.

Who Can Apply

Must be enrolled or planning to enroll at Metropolitan Community College (MCC — Omaha, NE). Eligibility varies by individual scholarship within the pool — some require NE residency, some are open to all students, some require specific program enrollment, some require FAFSA for need-based consideration. One application at mccneb.awardspring.com matches you to applicable scholarships. Contact MCC Financial Aid at (402) 457-2400 for assistance.
