About KC Scholars Awards
蘑菇tv视频 participates in several KC Scholars award programs with Great Jobs KC. Also, all KC Scholars recipients will have any 蘑菇tv视频 application fees and tuition deposits waived.

This traditional scholarship provides up to $10,000 per year for a recipient's college costs for up to five years. The award can only be used at KC Scholars partner institutions, like the 蘑菇tv视频. The funding for the award is paid directly to the student's college.
At 蘑菇tv视频, KC Scholars Traditional Scholarship recipients will also earn an academic award up to $17,500 a year, and can qualify for talent (athletic or fine arts) scholarships, as well as Saint Mary need-based aid. 蘑菇tv视频 will ensure that traditional KC Scholars recipients' out-of-pocket costs (for tuition, room and board) will not exceed the value of the student's federal loans after all other scholarships, grants, and aid (蘑菇tv视频 and non-蘑菇tv视频) are applied.

蘑菇tv视频-Only KC Scholarship recipients cannot qualify for talent or other scholarships from Saint Mary, but can still receive 蘑菇tv视频's need-based aid.
