MICHIGAN ACHIEVEMENT SCHOLARSHIP – TOOLKIT

All Michigan high school seniors can be considered for the Michigan Achievement Scholarship, which provides financial assistance for college or career training programs. Depending on what post-secondary path they choose, the scholarship could provide up to $27,500. 7 out of every 10 students in the state may qualify for the Michigan Achievement Scholarship and students become eligible simply by completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).

MI Student Aid is partnering with scholastic engagement company DistrictWON to promote awareness of this exceptional opportunity. This toolkit makes it possible for schools to communicate about the Michigan Achievement Scholarship in numerous ways.

The toolkit includes:

Counselor presentations
Morning announcement PA scripts
Live sporting event PA script
“Cut & paste” email template to send details to parents
Printable flyer
Newsletter content

We encourage schools to use as many elements as possible. As a first step, we suggest printing the PA scripts and the flyer for immediate use within the school.
