  • Michigan Promise Scholarship: Beginning with the class of 2007 the Michigan Promise Scholarship replaced the Michigan Merit Award. All students who take the state assessment test (MEAP for the class of 2007 and Michigan Merit Exam [MME] for the class of 2008 and beyond) have the opportunity to receive up to $4,000 if they meet all eligibility requirements. Students who receive qualifying scores (Level 2 or above) in each of the required components (mathematics, reading, science, and writing) are eligible to receive up to half of their scholarship in the first two years (in installments of $1,000 the first year, $1,000 the second year) and $2,000 once 50% of the academic requirements for bachelor’s degree are earned (90 term credits).
