NCMC Foundation SCHOLARSHIPS

The NCMC Foundation offers many opportunities for incoming, returning or transferring students to apply for scholarships. Below is information on the applications available and their deadlines. View more information on the application process.

All NCMC Foundation scholarship recipients must have submitted an on-line NCMC Foundation Scholarship Application by the posted deadline and at the time of award be currently enrolled full-time or in all available hours.

• General Scholarship Application is available December 1st, and the priority deadline is April 1^st for the next academic year. All incoming, returning, and transferring students are strongly encouraged to apply by the priority deadline.
• Nursing and Health Sciences Scholarship Application is available at the beginning of July and the deadline is after the start of the fall term. The fluidity of the application availability date and deadline date is determined by the start of the term and the Labor Day holiday. Applicants must be accepted into an NCMC nursing or health sciences program.
• Dual Credit Scholarship Application is available December 1st, and the deadline is the first Friday in February. This application is open to high school students enrolled in an NCMC dual credit course.

Many NCMC Foundation Scholarships (excluding dual credit) are renewable for a second semester if the recipient maintains full-time status and a 2.5 or higher cumulative GPA. Full-Time status is considered 12 credit hours.

Award letters with scholarship details for returning students will be sent to the student’s PIRATE e-mail. Award letters for high school students will be sent to their high school counselor. All applicants make sure to follow all the directions on the application site including updating your account email address to your PIRATE email address and verifying that your current address is on file via myCOMPASS or by contacting the Registrar’s Office.

All scholarship recipients are strongly encouraged to write a thank you letter to the scholarship donor/representative and attend the annual Scholarship Reception event. Recipients will be notified of the Scholarship Reception date by invitation.

A listing of available scholarships can be found on Scholarship Opportunities.
