Mediacom World Class Scholars

Just like most families, the Mediacom family believes in the importance of higher education. As a corporation with strong community roots, we want to support the higher education of our customers. For this reason, we formed World Class – The Mediacom Scholarship Program to help graduating high school students with their college expenses, such as tuition and books.

Through the World Class program, Mediacom awards $1,000 scholarships to winning applicants.
