At Morgan Community College, a variety of financial aid programs are available to assist students in their college career: scholarships, grants, work-study, loan programs, and tax credits. (Grants and scholarships do not have to be repaid.)
The purpose of a financial aid program is to assist students who, without such help, would be unable to pursue their educational goals. However, the primary responsibility for financing this education rests with students and/or their family. More information and forms may be obtained from the Financial Aid Office on the Fort Morgan campus, (970) 542-3150 or (800) 622-0216, ext. 3150, from MCC Center Directors, or high school counselors.
How Financial Aid Need is Calculated
Colleges and universities provide supplemental assistance to students who show documented financial need that is determined when the application is processed. Need is calculated by taking the college’s Cost of Attendance (COA) minus the Estimated Family Contribution (EFC) from the Student Aid Report (SAR) minus any Estimated Financial Assistance (EFA) which includes grants, scholarships, student loans, veterans education benefits, and outside resources. The Federal Pell Grant and all other federal and state grants are awarded on need. Scholarships can also be awarded based on need, but require a separate application and are more often based on merit and academic performance. Financial aid will be awarded on a rolling basis until funds are used up. For additional information, contact the Financial Aid Office.
COA - EFC - EFA = NEED
