Michigan State awards multiple scholarship levels to students based on academic achievement and financial need

The Police Officer’s and Fire Fighter’s Survivor Tuition Act provides for the waiver of tuition at a Michigan community college or public university for children and surviving spouses of Michigan police officers and fire fighters killed in the line of duty. The program is intended to provide an educational benefit to the spouse and children of police officers and fire fighters who made the ultimate sacrifice for their communities and the citizens of Michigan.

In partnership with the Michigan State Police, this program will teach young men and women about a career in law enforcement. If a student is interested about a career in law enforcement or is not sure, they should attend this program. Four college scholarships awarded to attendees that range from $500 to $1000.

The Tuition Incentive Program (TIP) is an incentive program that encourages eligible students to complete high school by providing tuition assistance for the first two years of college and beyond. To meet the financial eligibility requirement, a student must have (or have had) Medicaid coverage for 24 months within a 36-consecutive-month period as identified by the Michigan Department of Human Services (DHS).

We know the score: college is expensive. Whether you’re going for a 2- or 4- year degree, the price of tuition might give you some sticker shock. And that’s before you start adding in textbooks, school supplies, housing, and everything else you might need to succeed in your academic journey. That’s why we’re offering an easy way to enter to win $2,500 to help you offset those costs. Sign up and take the assessment today to enter to win. The deadline is September 30, 2024.
