Michigan Achievement Scholarship

On October 11, 2022, Governor Whitmer signed Public Act 212 of 2022 to establish the Michigan Achievement Scholarship.  
Starting with the high school class of 2023, students will be eligible for more financial aid from the State:  
- Up to $2,750 if they attend a Michigan community college, per year
 - Up to $5,500 if they attend a Michigan public university, per year
 - Up to $4,000 if they attend a Michigan private college or university, per year
 
Students will be eligible if their family demonstrates financial need* when they complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).
*Financial need is defined as an Expected Family Contribution (EFC) of $25,000 or less.
High school seniors can get started by following these steps: 
- File the FAFSA.
 - Create a MiSSG Student Portal account three to five business days after filing your FAFSA.
 

The value of the Vision Fair Foundation (VFF) scholarship is $4,000. One thousand dollars ($1,000) will be distributed for four years provided the student maintains a 2.8 or higher grade point average in each year in which he/she is pursuing a degree. Other scholarship awards will be given to outstanding students who have applied for the Vision Fair Foundation.
