"How can I afford to return to college?"
To help you finance your education there are various payment options available to MCMP students.  Students can apply for financial aid; both grants and students loans are available.  Payment plans can be established at Malone College.  There is also a business deferrement plan for student's who have tuition reimbursement through their employer.  In the employer reimbursement plan the student can defer payment of tuition that is reimbursable by an employer.  The portion of tuition paid by the employer is due upon receipt of grade cards and the end of each trimester.  Financing Your Education
