Scholarships

Scholarships for the MABC program are provided through the Graduate Studies department directly, not through our Financial Aid office. Scholarships are awarded semester by semester. Any active MABC student who wants a scholarship must apply each semester. Because scholarship funds are provided directly from our department they are limited. In this way, scholarship applications are considered on the basis of the following criteria…

• Academic performance
• Financial need
• Ministry potential

Scholarship applications are due to be submitted by the first day of the semester to which they will apply. Scholarship notifications will be provided by the beginning of the third week of the semester. Since scholarships are not guaranteed, students should plan to fund their education separately.

You can apply for the scholarship using the link below. The application form is now closed for the Spring 2026 semester. This scholarship application will not be open for the Summer 2026 semester, but it will open for the Fall 2026 semester on July 1, 2026 and its deadline is August 1, 2026.

You must be an active MABC student before you can apply for a scholarship. Applicants are not able to apply until they are admitted into the program.

After you have completed the scholarship form, questions regarding your scholarship status for the current semester should be directed to our program director, Mark Smith.
