Scholarships

MTS scholarships are used to pay MTS tuition and fees ONLY, unless otherwise specified, and are awarded on a full-academic year (two semesters), fall and spring semesters only. Please note, MTS scholarship will be reduced if a student receives awards from outside sources that in combination exceed the student’s cost of attendance.

Through gracious donors we are able to offer the following scholarships. Students must maintain a semester and cumulative grade point average of 3.00 and be enrolled in six semester hours in a degree-seeking program in order to be considered for these scholarships listed.

It is necessary to report to the Office of Financial Aid any change in circumstances, including outside scholarship awards not considered in the offer of assistance. By law, the Office of Financial Aid must make adjustments to prevent or correct “over awards” that may result from the receipt of these outside sources of financial assistance.

SCHOLARSHIP POLICIES ARE REVIEWED ANNUALLY AND ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE FROM YEAR TO YEAR. MTS POLICY MAY PROHIBIT ACADEMIC SCHOLARSHIP AWARDS TO EXCEED THE COST OF TUITION. MTS RESERVES THE RIGHT TO USE OUTSIDE SOURCES OF SCHOLARSHIPS IN DETERMINING IF ACADEMIC SCHOLARSHIPS EXCEED THE COST OF TUITION. SCHOLARSHIPS WILL BE GIVEN AS FUNDS ARE MADE AVAILABLE.
