Eligibility Requirements
Applicants must be high school seniors living in Saginaw, Bay, or Midland County, Michigan, planning to enroll full time in an undergraduate degree, two-year degree, or CTE training program. The applicant or a parent or legal guardian must be a current member of the Saginaw NAACP branch, and a minimum 2.0 GPA is required.
