The Michigan Achievement Scholarship was created through Public Act 212 of 2022, which appropriated $250 million dollars to make college more affordable for families, grow Michigan’s talent pool, and get the state closer to achieving its Sixty by 30 goal.
Students who graduate from high school in Michigan with a diploma or certificate of completion or achieved a high school equivalency certificate in 2023 or after will be eligible for more financial aid from the State of Michigan:
- Up to $2,000 if they attend an eligible training provider in Michigan, per year, up to two years
- Up to $2,750 if they attend a Michigan community college, per year, up to three years
- Up to $5,500 if they attend a Michigan public university, per year, up to five years
- Up to $4,000 if they attend a Michigan private college or university, per year, up to five years
We are excited to present further packaging guidance for the Michigan Achievement Scholarship and want to extend our thanks to our partners who assisted in providing their expertise and feedback during this process.
