Michigan SB0197 modifies the Michigan Tuition Grant Program for higher education.

Michigan SB0197 amends the Michigan Tuition Grant Program to adjust eligibility and grant criteria for resident students enrolled in independent nonprofit colleges or universities. It prioritizes full-time students, limits the number of semesters for which grants can be awarded, and specifies that students receiving full tuition scholarships from private institutions are ineligible. It also allows for an increase in state competitive scholarship awards with tuition grant funds.
