MMI's strong academic program has immeasurable rewards for both parents and students.

For most families, an MMI education pays for itself in the long run.

Each year, our graduates receive scholarships to some of the most prestigious colleges and universities in the country.

In fact, the 22 members of the Class of 2005 were offered $2.1 million in academic grants and scholarships. That’s an average of $97,570 per student for a four-year college education! Each student, on average, was offered a total of $24,370 for their first year of college.

Ashley Morrison, a 2005 MMI graduate, earned a full scholarship to St. Joseph's University.
Ashley Morrison, a Class of 2005 graduate, earned a full scholarship to St. Joseph’s University in Philadelphia where she is studying to become a doctor. “Ashley’s full-tuition scholarship will probably be worth $125,000 to $150,000 by the time she graduates,” said Michael Morrison, Ashley’s father. “MMI well prepared her, especially when it comes to writing and speaking. This has given Ashley a distinct advantange over most of her fellow freshmen.”

MMI also offers Advanced Placement classes. Students who enroll in them are offered the opportunity to take the AP tests, enabling many of them to “place out” of entry-level college courses. It isn’t unusual for an MMI graduate who has taken AP courses to skip introductory college classes.

Colleges and universities are interested in students who have gone beyond their normal class work and enrolled in Advanced Placement courses during secondary school. During the enrollment process, this is viewed as significant evidence of a students’ academic accomplishment, drive and preparation.

Jeremy Hauze used Advanced Placement tests at MMI to exempt himself from a full year of college courses.
Jeremy Hauze, a recent graduate of MMI, used credits from the Advanced Placement tests to exempt himself from a full year of college courses.

“MMI really paid off for Jeremy. Our son received a full scholarship to King’s College and received a full year’s credit for the AP courses as well,” said Mary and David Hauze, Jeremy’s parents.

Many MMI graduates report their first-year university classes cover material they’ve already learned at MMI. This eases the student’s transition to college and helps them to excel in their first year of college.

An MMI education is like an insurance policy for a child’s future success.

It is because of the extraordinary interest, guidance, and education of our talented students that MMI has a very high success rate when it comes to our recent graduating classes continuing their education.

In fact, one out of every 10 MMI Prep graduates since 1990 has gone on to study at an Ivy League university.

And, our students aren't just getting accepted into some of the nation's most prestigious colleges and universities - they're being accepted under Early Decision programs, which recognize the "best of the best." Six members of the Class of 2002 - almost 17% - were accepted by Early Decision programs at Stanford University, Columbia University, the University of Pennsylvania, and other schools.
