The School Counts program provides scholarship support for students who meet the established requirements during their high school careers. Students may use the scholarship for 4 semesters at Madisonville Community College and have 5 semesters from their high school graduation date to use the funds. All students receiving the School Counts scholarship are required to complete the FAFSA (MCC School Code 009010). If you are unsure if you have earned the School Counts Scholarship, please contact your High School Guidance Counselor or the MCC Financial Aid Office.
