Malcolm X College’s financial aid office makes every effort to assist students in an eligible degree or certificate program who need financial assistance.
An assortment of financial assistance programs are funded by federal, state and local governmental agencies. In addition, funds also may be obtained from private businesses, foundations and philanthropic organizations. However, students are rarely able to find enough resources to fully fund the complete cost of college attendance. Ultimately, the primary responsibility for financing educational expenses belongs to the student and his/her family.
Allied Health Students–Grant Assistance is Available!
