Mt. Pleasant Community Scholarship

The due date is the First Class Day of the Fall Semester

This scholarship has been established and is generously provided by the Mt. Pleasant Community Fund, a local non-profit organization, to support graduates of Mount Pleasant, Chapel Hill, and Harts Bluff Schools with the costs of earning an education.

The scholarship will cover resident tuition and fees for up to 15 hours per semester for students graduating in the top 10% of the Mt. Pleasant, Chapel Hill, and Harts Bluff High School classes. All other graduating students from these high schools will receive a scholarship covering resident tuition for up to 15 hours per semester. Those students will be required to pay fees.

Example based on 2024-25 tuition and fees:  Total resident tuition and fees for a student taking 15 hours is $1,859.00.  If student is not in the top 10% the scholarship would pay resident tuition costs of $825.00; the student would be responsible for $1,034.00 for fees.
