Do you need financial assistance?

Here at Mid-America College of Health Sciences, we know that not all students can afford to pay for tuition and other related expenses out of pocket. So we’re always looking for ways to help qualified students get the financial assistance they need.

One of those ways is KC Scholars, one of our financial partners.

If you are a high school graduate and live in Johnson or Wyandotte county in Kansas, and Cass, Clay, Jackson, and Platte county in Missouri, you may be eligible for a KC Scholars program offering financial assistance.

Please note that it may take 6 – 8 weeks to complete the approval process through KC Scholars. Students must complete the admission requirements specific to the MACOHS program for which they are enrolling. Students seeking financial assistance through KC Scholars can not start a program at MACOHS until they have been approved for funding through KC Scholars. 

If you have questions about your eligibility for KC Scholars, text 913-708-8323 to chat with one of our student success team members. You may also stop by during our office hours to speak to one of our financial assistance administrators.
