Apply for Competitive Scholarships for Returning Undergraduate Students
(Dec. 1, 2023-Feb. 2, 2024)
Each spring, MICA offers students the chance to compete for more than $600,000 in merit-based scholarships. Eligible students must be currently enrolled, full-time, degree-seeking undergraduates and must register full-time for the following academic year. All entrants must have at least a 3.0 grade point average as of the Fall semester. Funding for competitive scholarships comes from MICA, as well as individual donors and organizations. All awards will be applied as a credit to the recipients' tuition for the upcoming 24-25 school year. Students receiving MICA tuition remission benefits or a Full Scholarship are not eligible for competitive scholarships.
