Massachusetts Association of Community Colleges (MACC) Scholarship

The ecosystem of our community college network across the Commonwealth is the lifeblood of opportunity for people looking to advance their careers through education. Northeastern’s College of Professional Studies is invested in ensuring that the future of that network is sustained with strong leaders.

In support of that vision, the MACC scholarship is exclusively for full-time faculty and staff working at any Massachusetts community college interested in pursuing their master’s degree or one of two doctoral degrees: Education (EdD) or Professional Studies (DPS). All active faculty and staff working at any community college in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts automatically receive a 25% reduction in tuition!

Eligible Programs:

All the coursework for these programs is available completely online (with one required in-person residency for the EdD) so you can finish your degree on your schedule. With more than 20 programs available – from Higher Education Administration and Project Management to Applied AI and Analytics –  this is a tremendous opportunity to not only invest in your own future, but the future contributions you can make to advancing access to educational opportunities for others. Whether you choose to pursue a teaching degree or another graduate degree, your learning will directly benefit your community college.
