Montcalm Community College and the MCC Foundation are offering more than $360,000 in scholarship funds for the 2019-2020 academic year.

More than 50 endowed scholarship funds provide awards to support students as they pursue their degrees and certificates at MCC. The Family of Michelle Mater Gibson Agricultural Scholarship Fund was established in the past year to support MCC students who are pursuing agriculture-related careers.
