Middlesex Community College is committed to assisting students and their families in meeting the cost of a college education and it’s not too late to apply for financial aid.
MCC participates in most federal and state grant, scholarship and loan programs – including the state’s new MassGrant Plus Program, which specifically provides aid to community college students. The deadline to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to be eligible for this new grant has been extended to Thursday, Nov. 1.
Additional forms of financial aid, including student employment, federal Work Study programs, or scholarship opportunities, may be available for those who qualify.

The goal of MCC’s Financial Aid Office is to ensure there are no financial barriers preventing students from earning a college degree or certificate. The office provides information about student-aid programs, and financial aid advisors are available to assist eligible students in accessing these programs.
Financial aid awards are based on financial need, enrollment status in an eligible program, and availability of funding. Almost half of all Middlesex students currently receive financial aid.
