Marymount Manhattan College Grants
Grants are offered to entering students on the basis of financial need. Some of these grants continue to be offered to students who maintain a specific cumulative grade point average. (If cumulative GPA is also a criterion, the required GPA is shown under eligibility.) All grants and combinations of grants with supplemental grants are awarded up to tuition costs only depending on individual need. Changes to enrollment and living arrangements can impact eligibility for MMC scholarships and need based grants/endowments.
