FileStudents transferring to 麻豆传媒 during the spring 2015 semester have a new scholarship option. Renewable merit scholarships of $500 or $1,000 will be available to new transfer students.
鈥淚n the past, these scholarships were only available to students in the fall,鈥� said community college coordinator Neal Hoelting. 鈥淏ut we understand that not every transfer student follows the same schedule. When they are ready to transfer, we want to have a scholarship available for them.鈥�
