Bronco Promise
The Bronco Promise offers free tuition and fees for up to five years for Michigan residents in need, defined by eligibility criteria below. Students can receive the award in the fall and spring semesters only for 12-15 credit hours.
There is no application required for this scholarship, but the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) must be completed by July 1. The award will be renewed each academic year if Â鶹´«Ã½s continue to demonstrate financial need via the FAFSA and are making Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP).
For anyone who's intimidated by the college experience of going to a brand new place with no one they really know, Bronco Connect is a great opportunity. Not only are you placed in this community with other people who are experiencing the same thing, but the resident assistants and learning community assistants are also very supportive.
