Frequently Asked Questions

1. How do you define new students or returning students?
   A new student is anyone who has not been a MATC college student in the past. The student could be a recent graduate of a high school or someone who has been out of high school for a while but has never enrolled at MATC. A new, incoming student could also be someone transferring from another college or university to MATC. Returning students are those students who are currently attending classes for an associate Degree or technical diploma at MATC or had previously attended classes at MATC.
2. Is there a minimum GPA or credit requirement? 
   Yes, a minimum GPA of 2.0 and enrollment in at least six credits is required to apply for a scholarship. However, all scholarships have criteria that were set up by the benefactor detailing what is required by a student to be awarded the scholarship. The student is applying for all scholarships listed by completing the MATC Foundation general scholarship application. 
3. Do you adhere firmly to the application deadline?
   Yes.
4. What do I need to complete once I’ve received a scholarship offer?
   Scholarship recipients must accept their scholarship offer, complete a student profile, and be enrolled in Fall semester classes by the time Fall classes begin or risk losing their scholarship.
5. I received a scholarship, but the money has not been applied to my account. What should I do? 
   Scholarship awards are generally applied to charges for tuition, fees, and books directly through the financial aid office; any remaining balance is the responsibility of the student. Students will need to check with the financial aid office to see if any payments are still due following their scholarship award.
