Advantage Information
What is ADVANTAGE SCHOLARSHIP?
The Advantage Scholarship allows students to enroll in many two-year and four-year college programs at a reduced tuition level: 150 percent of the institutions resident tuition. In all cases, tuition is considerably less than nonresident tuition.
Who gets the ADVANTAGE SCHOLARSHIP?
Advantage Scholarship is awarded on a competitive basis. Students who apply for scholarships at Montana Tech will be considered for Advantage Scholarship. Those who apply before March 1, will receive priority consideration. To receive the Advantage Scholarship a student must be enrolled in one of the following degrees: Environmental Engineering, Geological Engineering, Geophysical Engineering, Metallurgical Engineering, Mining Engineering, Math, Computer Science, Software Engineering, Chemistry, Biology, Business Information Technology, Metals Fabrication, Drafting, GIS, GPS, or Engineering Technology.
How does the award appear on the student’s bill?
The Advantage Scholarship will appear on the student’s bill as a residency classification. The tuition and fees that appear on the bill will be the reduced amount based on your Advantage Scholarship. Students will not deduct the Advantage Scholarship from the amount that appears on your bill.
How much is the Advantage Scholarship worth?
The Advantage Scholarship recipients are billed based on a percentage of in-state tuition. As tuition fluxuates, so will the value of an Advantage Scholarship. Currently, the Advantage Scholarship is worth approximately $25,000 based on current tuition rates if the student attends for nine semesters.
How long does the Advantage Scholarship last?
Advantage Scholarship lasts for a maximum of 9 semesters. The student must remain in good academic standing, be actively working toward an “Advantage recognized degree,” and not break full-time attendance. If any of these conditions are not met or upon the 10th semester of attendance, the student will be reclassified as an out of state resident and subsequent tuition will reflect that change.
