NEW STUDENT: Wentworth Family Endowed Scholarship
The Wentworth Family Scholarship was established by Timothy ’80 and Robin ’80 Wentworth to provide a cohort of deserving students with scholarship support while pursuing their education and career goals at MCC. Candidates should show a demonstrated financial need (through completion of the FAFSA) and academic promise (through above average academic performance). The Wentworth Family Scholarship can be used toward any cost of education expense. The award amount can vary but is expected to cover the cost of full-time tuition and, with continued eligibility, will be renewable for a second year. Wentworth Scholars will be supported by a dedicated counselor, invited to participate in Honors courses and opportunities for summer jobs and internships may be available.
